Youth Flintshire Active Communities
Team Outreach Roadshow


Our aim is to promote better understanding of all the facets of the community, and all its people regardless of race, faith & age.

By involving the Youth of Flintshire in every-day life, showing them that the community is theirs too, that they can help shape it, make it a better and safer place in which they want to be, we hope to reach this goal.

Working together brings people closer and help them understand each other. This applies to all generations, create respect between them, and make a better place to live in for all.

Y-factor Mobile Bus Launch

This event took place in Hawarden High School on Tuesday 15th September 2009.

The Y-factor Mobile unit is the final result of a project born from the Views of Young People.


You can find out more about how FNWA went about creating this unit, from its concept to its final result, its main objectives and those who were involved, in our Y-Factor Mobile Concept document.

The aim of the Y-factor Mobile Bus unit is to "engage the Youth of Flintshire, Building Respect, Caring for our Schools & Environment" in several ways:

· To encourage the younger members of the public to play their part, and
· Provide reassurance to residents through building respect between generations.
· Engage young people in helping to reduce arson & criminal damage which specifically target schools, the environment and surrounding neighbourhoods.

The Pen-Y Crew Arson Project

In the exact spirit of what our new Youth Mobile Unit will try and spread around, the young people of Penyfford, the Pen-Y crew, participated in a Youth & Community initiative supporting SAFER NEIGHBOURS, by getting involved in a project to tackle arson in the area.

Flintshire Neighbourhood Watch Association supported them throughout and we are proud to make available this booklet (in PDF format) which describes their efforts and the results that followed.
