Norfolk Youth Offending Team (NYOT)

The Norfolk Youth Offending Team (NYOT) is dedicated to preventing youth crime and supporting young people in making positive life choices. Established as part of the UK’s commitment to reducing youth offending, NYOT works collaboratively with various agencies to provide tailored interventions for young offenders.

Our core activities include:

• Assessment and Support: We conduct thorough assessments to understand the individual needs of each young person, ensuring that our support is relevant and effective.
• Restorative Justice: NYOT promotes restorative practices that encourage accountability and reconciliation between young offenders and their victims.
• Education and Training: We offer educational programs and vocational training to equip young people with the skills necessary for future employment.
• Family Engagement: Recognizing the importance of family, we involve parents and guardians in the rehabilitation process to foster a supportive environment.

Our vision is to create a safer community by empowering young people to make informed decisions and break the cycle of offending. We believe in the potential of every young person and strive to provide them with the tools they need to succeed.

NYOT operates with a team of dedicated professionals, including social workers, youth workers, and educational specialists, all committed to making a difference in the lives of young people. Through our comprehensive approach, we aim to reduce reoffending rates and promote positive outcomes for youth in Norfolk.
