The two-year DICE Connections project is working with young people aged 10-15 from the Bloomfield, Breezemount, Clandeboye and Whitehill areas in Bangor.
These young people face a range of challenges including risk of criminal behaviour, problems at school, poor self-esteem and poverty. The £199,000 grant is being used to develop their core and life skills, increase their resilience and self-belief, and improve their health and wellbeing.
The programme of activities includes the continuation of local youth clubs, a mentoring programme, wellness activities, personal development, young leaders programme and community events.
