The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award

The centrepiece of CJIW’s work with young offenders across Wales, the popularity and effectiveness of the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award as an accredited diversionary activity in the Welsh criminal justice system has been proven and established for 15 years with over 10,000 youngsters taking part.  Available to 14-25 year olds, the vast majority of CJIW Award participants fall beyond the scheme’s traditional reach and are excluded from participation due to social and economic circumstances.  The support provided by CJIW allows participants the opportunity to engage with and achieve the full range of opportunities offered by the Award and the associated benefits of enhanced educational and employment benefits.

The Endeavour Award

Launched by the former Minister of Prisons and Probation, the Rt Hon David Hanson MP in 2007, the Endeavour Award is a CJIW initiative that has become an established feature of the Welsh criminal justice landscape.  In extending the opportunities of the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award to those aged over 25 older participants take part in a wide range of challenging activities and educational programmes leading to a modular, holistic and accredited programme of personal development.

Enhanced Community Punishment

CJIW works within Youth Offending Teams across North Wales in the provision of purposeful and challenging unpaid work opportunities for 16-18 year olds.  Value is added by the encouragement of voluntary participation in the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award and the achievement of additional qualifications outside of the time allocated to their statutory orders.  The programme offers further benefit in providing unpaid work as a service distinct from adult offenders.  Evaluation of this programme has indicated a significant increase in the rate of successful completion of community and subsequent reduction in re-offending by participants, acknowledged by the Howard League for Penal Reform which awarded the project national runner-up status in its 2010 Community Programme Award.

Independent Living Skills/Future Skills

Many of CJIW’s diverse range of educational inputs have been consolidated into the Independent Living Skills programme delivered to Probation, YOT and Drug Interventions Programme participants.  The twelve week course encompasses theoretical and practical sessions focussing on finance and debt, citizenship, accommodation issues, substance misuse, education and training, together with attitudes, thinking and behaviour. 

TAPE – Music and Film

Our latest successful collaboration is working with TAPE Music and Film who provide exciting opportunities for participation in music and film projects. CJIW and TAPE have jointly developed and equipped a resource centre in Colwyn Bay and, of course, supported the development of the actively gigging service-user band – Wild Stallions! The latest CJIW/TAPE joint venture involves assisting service-users in the production of a DVD promoting the services offered by the DAWN project.

Football Academy

The CJIW Football Academy, comprising of two tournaments over the summer months, has become an annual highlight with over three hundred young people participating in the events at Prestatyn Town FC.

Open College Network

Our successful partnership with YMCA Community College continues to develop with an extensive range of OCN units available to participants wishing to return to learning.  OCN accreditation is a cross-cutting theme across all of our interventions and many students follow the progression route from Award to Certificate to Diploma.  CJIW’s staff are fully qualified at the industry-standard City and Guilds 7303 Train the Trainer qualification.  Over 2,400 OCNs will be delivered in 2010/11.

Adventures Services Challenge

The Adventure Service Challenge scheme operates in partnership with Swansea and Gwynedd/Mon Youth Offending Teams and has proved adept in involving disadvantaged under 14 year olds in stimulating constructive activities which serve as a pathway to later involvement in the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award.

Circles of Support and Accountability

Established in May 2007, Circles of Support and Accountability has recruited and trained eighty volunteers to support and monitor sex offenders in their communities.  This groundbreaking programme has assisted thirty-four high-risk offenders to reintegrate into society and has prevented any further incidences of re-offending.  The programme has received awards from the North Wales Criminal Justice Board and WCVA and has received substantial funding from the Tudor Trust.

Volunteering

CJIW has recruited, trained and managed over one hundred volunteers deployed mainly through the COSA and Arc projects.  In addition to our adult volunteers, participants have undertaken thousands of hours of voluntary work and sponsored activities in their communities including raising £10,000 to purchase a cancer care bed at Glan Clwyd Hospital.

Welcome to the CJIW website

Our Objectives:

CJIW’s objects, as lodged with the Charity Commission are ‘To advance education and reduce crime and anti-social behaviour by providing or assisting in the provision of recreation facilities, advice, guidance, accredited qualifications and education in the interest of social welfare for those inhabitants of Wales who may come into contact with the criminal justice system and/or who may be in danger of doing so, or people with social disadvantage, in order that they may play a full role as individuals and members of society.’

Our Mission:

CJIW’s mission is ‘to develop those with whom it works in order that they may achieve their full potential both as individuals and members of society’.

CJIW in the Press

We seek to utilise local press and broadcast media to help counter the constant stream of negative people regarding young people in the national media and, in so doing, re-assure the public that young people are willing and capable of playing a constructive part in their communities.  This is just a small sample of the headlines that CJIW has attracted this year.

    Croeso i wefan CJIW

    Ein Hamcanion:

    Nodau CJIW, fel y’u cofnodir gyda’r Comisiwn Elusennau, yw “hyrwyddo addysg a lleihau trosedd ac ymddygiad anghymdeithasol trwy ddarparu neu gynorthwyo i ddarparu cyfleusterau hamdden, cyngor, cyfarwyddyd, cymwysterau achrededig ac addysg er budd lles cymdeithasol y trigolion hynny yng Nghymru a all ddod i gysylltiad â’r gyfundrefn cyfiawnder troseddol a/neu a all fod mewn perygl o wneud hynny, neu bobl sydd dan anfantais gymdeithasol, fel y gallant chwarae rhan lawn fel unigolion ac aelodau cymdeithas.’

    Ein Cenhadaeth:

    Cenhadaeth CJIW yw ‘datblygu’r bobl y mae’n gweithio â hwy fel y gallant gyflawni eu potensial llawn fel unigolion ac aelodau cymdeithas’.

    YCCC yn y wasg

    Ceisiwn ddefnyddio’r wasg a’r cyfryngau lleol i wrthwynebu’r llif cyson o ragfarn negyddol ynglŷn â phobl ifanc yn y cyfryngau cenedlaethol ac, wrth wneud hynny, sicrhau’r cyhoedd bod pobl ifanc yn fodlon ac yn alluog i chwarae rhan gadarnhaol yn eu cymunedau.  Dyma gyfran fechan yn unig o’r penawdau a welodd YCCC eleni.

    Gwobr Dug Caeredin

    Mae canolbwynt gwaith YCCC gyda throseddwyr ifanc ledled Cymru, sef poblogrwydd Gwobr Dug Caeredin fel gweithgaredd achrededig yn system cyfiawnder troseddol Cymru, tyn rhan brofedig a sefydlog er 15 mlynedd, ac mae dros 10,000 o bobl ifanc wedi cymryd rhan ynddi.  Gan fod hon ar gael i rai 14-25 oed, mae’r rhan fwyaf o’r rhai sy’n cymryd rhan ynddi trwy YCCC y tu allant i gylch traddodiadol ac nid ydynt yn ael cymryd rhan oherwydd amgylchiadau cymdeithasol ac ariannol.  Mae’r gefnogaeth a ddarperir gan YCCC yn galluogi rhan sy’n cymryd rhan yn y Wobr i ymwneud â holl ystod y cyfleoedd a gynigir a’r buddiannau cysylltiedig o ran addysg a chyflogaeth.

    Y Wobr Ymdrech

    Lansiwyd y Wobr Ymdrech gan y Gwir Anrhydeddus David Hanson AS, y Gweinidog Carcharau a Phrawf. Mae hon yn fenter gan YCCC i ymestyn y cyfleoedd a gynigir gan Wobr Dug Caeredin i rai dros 25 oed. Trwy lenwi bwlch mewn darpariaeth a nodwyd gan ein partneriaid ym maes cyfiawnder troseddol, mae’r Wobr Ymdrech yn caniatáu cyfle i bobl hyn gymryd rhan mewn ystod eang o weithgareddau difyr a heriol sy’n arwain at raglen fodiwlaidd, holistig ar ddatblygiad personol sy’n derbyn achrediad.

    Cosb Uwch yn y Gymuned

    Mae YCCC yn gweithio o fewn Timau Troseddau Ieuenctid ar draws Gogledd Cymru i ddarparu gwaith di-dâl gwerthfawr a heriol i rai 16-18 oed.  Ychwanegir gwerth trwy eu hannog i gymryd rhan mewn gweithgareddau Gwobr Dug Caeredin ac ennill cymwysterau ychwanegol y tu allan i’r oriau a bennir yn eu Gorchmynion, yn ogystal ag mewn darparu gwasanaeth penodedig ar wahân i droseddwyr sy’n oedolion. Mae gwerthuso ar y prosiect hwn wedi dangos cynnydd sylweddol yn y gyfradd o bobl ifanc sy’n llwyddo i gwblhau eu gorchmynion cymunedol ac sy’n osgoi aildroseddu. Cydnabuwyd hyn gan Gynghrair Diwygio Cosb Howard, a ddyfarnodd statws ail orau i’r prosiect ar lefel genedlaethol yn ei Gwobrau Rhaglenni Cymunedol yn 2010.

    Sgiliau Byw Annibynnol/Sgiliau at y Dyfodol

    Cyfunwyd llawer o fewnbwn addysgol amrywiol YCCC mewn rhaglen Sgiliau Byw Annibynnol a ddarparwyd i rai sy’n cymryd rhan mewn gwasanaethau Prawf, YOT ac Ymyrraeth Cyffuriau.  Mae’r cwrs yn para am ddeuddeg wythnos ac mae’n cwmpasu sesiynau theoretig ac ymarferol sy’n ffocysu ar arian, dyled a dinasyddiaeth, llety, cam-drin sylweddau, addysg a hyfforddiant, ynghyd ag agweddau, meddwl ac ymddygiad.  Achredir y cwrs gan y Rhwydwaith Coleg Agored ac mae’n cynnig dilyniant trwy’r Gwobrau Dug CAEREDIN a Menter.

    TAPE – Cerdd a Ffilm

    Ein cydweithrediad llwyddiannus diweddaraf yw gweithio gyda chwmni Cerdd a Ffilm sy’n darparu cyfleoedd cyffrous i gymryd rhan mewn prosiectau cerddoriaeth a ffilmiau.

Mae’r fenter ddiweddaraf ar y cyd gan CJIW/TAPE yn cynorthwyo defnyddwyr gwasanaethau i gynhyrchu DVD yn hyrwyddo’r gwasanaethau a gynigir gan y prosiect DAWN.

    Academi Bêl-droed

    Mae Academi Bêl-droed YCCC, sy’n rhedeg dau dwrnamaint dros fisoedd yr haf, wedi dod yn uchafbwynt bob blwyddyn gyda thros dri chant o bobl ifanc yn cymryd rhan yn y digwyddiad yng Nghlwb Pêl-droed Tref Prestatyn.

    Rhwydwaith Coleg Agored

    Mae ein partneriaeth lwyddiannus gyda Choleg Cymunedol YMCA Cymru’n parhau i ddatblygu ac mae ystod eang o unedau RhCA ar gael i bobl sydd am ddychwelyd i fyd dysgu.  Mae achrediad RhCA yn thema sy’n croesi ein holl ymyriadau ac mae llawer o bobl yn dilyn y dilyniant o Wobr i Dystysgrif i ddiploma.  Mae staff YCCC yn dal cymwysterau llawn yn safon y diwydiant, sef Dinas ac Urddau 7303 Hyfforddi Hyfforddwyr.  Darperir dros 2,400 o gymwysterau RhCA yn 2010/11.
