Young People. Figure 6 below shows that the percentage of young people receiving JSA who are aged under 25 years generally follows the national pattern. 1045 young people (6.5%) in Highland currently receive the benefit. This has risen from 450 in September 2007. Figure 6: Youth Unemployment (October 2004 to February 2013)

Young People. Young people in St.Helens are on par with the national averages when it comes to education, for example, reaching satisfactory standards in Key Stage 2, St.Helens pupils achieved 83% in 2015 compared with 80% in England. Pupils achieving 5 A*-C grades at GCSE in St.Helens in 2014/15 was statistically similar to England (55.4% and 57.3% respectively). Achieving well at school widens the opportunities for young people in adulthood. However there are a number of areas in which St.Helens does not achieve so well, for example the proportion of children not in education, employment or training (NEET) aged 16-18 in St.Helens is higher than regional and national averages (6.4% vs 4.2% nationally for 2015). Looked after children (those in care) perform worse than average on a range of measures, such as poorer school attainment and having a higher chance of mental health issues. In 2015, the rate of looked after children in St.Helens was almost twice that of England overall (113 and 60 per 10,000 respectively). High rates of teenage conceptions, high levels of alcohol and self- harm hospital admissions for young people indicate that in St.Helens there are ongoing risk and resilience issues.

Young People. The service must be provided to anyone accessing the service who is 18 years or older who requires clean injecting equipment. Should the service user disclose that they are under 18, or the pharmacy suspects that they are under 18, the pharmacy must try to obtain details from the young person about their injecting behaviour and either make a referral to the Platform service or facilitate the opportunity for the young person to self refer. If the young person refuses to disclose personal information and does not want to be referred to Platform, information about Platform should be given to the young person with encouragement to attend at a later date. Details of the Citywide Harm Reduction Service should also be provided as an alternative point of contact (they will then make the appropriate links with Platform). In extreme circumstances, where an injecting history is established and it is deemed that there are acute risks involved with not supplying equipment, a limited supply of equipment can be provided, as long as no Child Protection issues have been identified that indicate that this would be inappropriate and that the young person has been able to demonstrate their competence to consent to the treatment. The Fraser guidelines should be followed and a thorough assessment undertaken.

If needles are given out in such circumstances, the reasons for the decision to do so should be documented and a telephone call to Platform should be made to make them aware of the action. Any details that can be shared with Platform should be in order to safeguard the well- being of the young person. If the same young person presents again, whilst the process should be repeated, ...
Young People. The Puntland Five Year Development Plan 2007 – 11 (FYDP) highlights the plight of young people as being either returnees from refugee camps, IDP’s and / or child soldiers from former clan militias. They suffer from poverty, illiteracy, unemployment, drug addiction and psychological trauma from war experiences. Youth are also at risk of epidemic diseases such as HIV/AIDS due to lack of awareness and health education.
