TLC is a long term intensive support programme for young people aged from 14 to 19 years, delivered in community settings and supported by locally trained volunteer mentors.

It is suitable for young people who are not engaging in education and training and who are identified as being involved with violence, drugs missuse, criminal or sexual exploitation. 

Young people are supported to transform their mental health and emotional resilience, make realistic, achievable life plans and take part in social action projects to build their confidence and develop their employability skills.
