Who We Are and What We Do

The Swindon Youth Offending Team was set up in April 1999. The primary aim of the team is to help young people avoid offending. We work in partnership with a number of other government departments in order to achieve this.

The Team

The team consists of 28 workers (including administrative and part time staff) as well as 12 sessional workers, 25 mentors and 32 Youth Offending Panel members. The team is made up of representatives from the following organisations and individuals:

• Swindon Social Services
• Wiltshire Probation Service
• Wiltshire Police
• The Education and Youth Service
• Swindon Primary Care Trust.
• Stonham Housing Association
• Volunteers from the local community
