Not In Our Community is a campaign funded by the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner for Humberside, developed and co-produced with young people within the Humber region to help children and young people stay safe.

Building on ten years of effective working relationships with schools, VCS, youth, and public services, Not In Our Community is expanding its educational resources and interventions to cover broader topics, and will continue to maintain high-quality tools to help people protect themselves and their friends from grooming and child exploitation.

It really helps thousands of young people understand how grooming and exploitation work so that they can better protect themselves, spot the warning signs amongst friends, and know who they can go to for help.

The Education Partnership brings partners together from the Humberside Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner (OPCC), Humberside Police, Humberside Fire and Rescue, Education and Safeguarding leads from the four local authorities, Safer Roads Humber and wider partners involved in safeguarding, education, public health and early intervention.

The Partnership aims to reduce the risks of young people being affected by crime by making them aware of crime-related issues that might affect them, and provide resources and support that focus on early intervention and prevention.

Additional resources for teachers and professionals working with young people can be found here: Resources and Training | Education Partnership

As part of the ongoing work we deliver through the Not In Our Community initiative on behalf of the Office of Police and Crime Commissioner for Humberside, we are able to offer schools and other educational providers a range of sessions for students, teachers and professionals on the selected topics which cover:

• Violence Against Women and Girls
• Anti-Social Behaviour
• Grooming and Child Exploitation 
• Substance Use
• Violence and Weapons
• Unsafe Relationships
• Online Harm

We can be flexible to meet requirements, and can tailor sessions to work for you, but primarily provide:

• Whole class/school education from years 6 to 11 covering general awareness and specific education on issues.
• Introductory sessions for staff and/or governors, inclusive of making you aware of additional resources available for free for ongoing education work.
• Targeted workshops/focus groups with at risk children and young people.
