Not In Our Community - Resources for Parents & Carers

Parents and carers play a crucial role in helping young people stay safe. The challenges facing young people are increasing and becoming more complex. Similarly, knowing how best to support and guide children through changing times can be scary and overwhelming.

The 'Not In Our Community' online resource hub is designed to support parents and carers with advice across a wide range of topics. The resources aim to give you the confidence to have open conversations about difficult subjects to help guide young people to make positive choices.

Explore the resource hub: https://notinourcommunity.org/parents-carers/

It covers key topics linked to crime prevention and safety, including violence and weapons, relationships, anti-social behaviour and more. These resources can help parents and carers spot early warning signs, understand the pressures young people face and feel confident offering guidance when they need it most.

You’ll find high‑quality, free materials such as videos, digital booklets and activity directories for young people – all are easy to use at home and are suitable for a wide range of ages.

Have Any Feedback?

Resources will be continually added to the hub throughout the year. However, we're aware that there may be gaps and opportunities.

Would you recommend any changes and do you feel like there are any topics that are missing? What further resources would parents and carers find helpful to talk to young people about crime and violence prevention?

We'd love to hear your feedback - please email the Humber Violence Prevention Partnership team.

Not In Our Community is funded by the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner for Humberside.
