Educating young people on the consequences of crime since 2009.

“Young people who commit crime from an early age are
especially likely to become habitual offenders with long criminal
careers” (Farrington, 2008).

— We Build Networks

CELLS is indeed a beneficiary led organization. We are about opening doors and improving opportunities for people to lead positive lifestyles.
We have a healthy partnership base which enhances opportunity and possibilities for our beneficiaries. Victims and reformed offenders tell us they find it liberating working together to benefit young people; likewise, the young people reciprocate support to the team.

— We Strengthen

In 2019 we provided 4050 Mentoring sessions to 172 children and young people(CYP).98% of whom self-reported improved confidence, self-esteem, and well-being.
We held 138 Awareness / Intervention and Outreach sessions and facilitated 22 Family Drop-in sessions. Awareness sessions evaluated 21,705 CYP, with 21,635 CYP self-reporting positive attitude changes towards crime and crime involvement. 17 CYP was referred for knife possession; after CELLS intervention, they told us they would not carry a knife again.
