Students Trained With Streetwise Programmes

A Decision-Making Framework for Young People

The 3 D's

D1

Detect

Firstly, our young people need the ability to detect danger in their environments.

D2

Defuse

Secondly, our young people need the ability to de-escalate situations which may spiral out of control.

D3

Defend

And thirdly, our young people need the ability to employ functional movement to move them to safety.

Why Streetwise 365

Our personal safety training gives students agency and confidence to make danger-avoiding decisions, often before trouble even occurs.

Our framework is built around three steps: Detection, Defusing, and Defence. In this way, we give the students the skills and strategies to stay safe.

‘Young people are empowered to make better decisions and to manage risk more effectively’.

Why do we need Streetwise365

  • Fear of crime is the most common cause of unhappiness among young people in the UK, affecting 2.2 million children.
  • 1 million children are victims of crime every year. The Good Childhood Report 2017 written by York University, shows that 1 in 4 boys fear being assaulted or mugged, and 1 in 3 girls fear being followed by a stranger.
  • With our personal safety education, students will have the tools to avoid crime and conflict.
