Together we’re reaching more young people in Norfolk

We are pleased to share that our Rose Project has secured renewed statutory funding from Norfolk County Council. This continued investment strengthens our ability to reach even more young people who are affected by, or at risk of, child sexual exploitation (CSE). As risks to young people increase both online and offline, this funding ensures that specialist support across Norfolk remains accessible when young people need it most.

With traditional youth spaces declining and many young people turning to social media for connection, vulnerabilities such as grooming, isolation and unsafe relationships continue to rise—particularly for those living in rural areas or not in education, employment or training.

Thanks to this renewed investment, our young peoples services will continue to:

🔹 Provide targeted 1:1 support to young people at risk
🔹 Deliver early‑intervention and education sessions
🔹 Work closely with schools, safeguarding teams and frontline professionals
🔹 Help young people recognise unhealthy relationships and stay safer online and offline

Since 2007, the Rose Project has supported more than 900 young people through specialist intervention, helping them build resilience, understand consent and healthy relationships, and reduce their risk of harm. Our Jigsaw Educational Programme has reached 420 young people.
