Claire Greenwood
Youth Interventions Trainer

"As a Youth Intervention Trainer promoting positive behaviour changes, it is rewarding to see the young people we work with making different choices, displaying more resilience, and identifying future goals. 

Through being able to work with young people to think more positively about their community and their actions within it, we can promote the role of the emergency services and challenge negative stereotypes that may be held. The role of a Youth Interventions Trainer means we engage with a broad range of young people with varying needs and backgrounds, encouraging the development of skills such as communication, resilience, and teamwork. We help keep West Yorkshire safer by working with young people to challenge Anti-Social Behaviour and increase awareness of deliberate fire setting and safer road use."
