The Conwy and Denbighshire Youth Justice Service is responsible for working with young people aged 10-17 years who get in trouble with the law. We aim to prevent them from getting involved with anti-social behaviour, offending and re-offending. We look into the background of a young person and try to help them stay away from crime.
We work in partnership with:
- Conwy County Borough Council
- Denbighshire County Council
- North Wales Police
- Probation officers
- Health, housing and children’s services
- Careers Wales
- Substance misuse services
- Schools and education services
- Charities and the local community
Our work
We get involved with a young person if they:
- get into trouble with the police or are arrested
- are charged with a crime and have to go to court
- are convicted of a crime and given a sentence
We also offer support to victims of youth crime and anti-social behaviour. This can be via restorative justice sessions, where the people who have been harmed and the young people that have caused harm are brought together.
Make a referral
We accept referrals from:
- parents
- schools
- community police officers
- other professionals
If you are concerned about the behaviour of a young person, please get in touch.
