About Us
Home
Reflex exist to empower children, young people and young adults to break the cycle of offending and reoffending. In 11 prisons, across 5 regions, we equip young people with the skills, confidence and opportunities to realise their full potential.
Reflex deliver Outreach, accredited Non-Formal Education, and through-the-gate Resettlement Mentoring for young people serving a custodial sentence. Using a tried and tested methodology: ‘creative reflection – positive expression’, Reflex help young people reflect creatively on their lives and positively express their hopes for the future.
We also train practitioners working with youth at risk of offending in community settings, to deliver our accredited life skills and urban arts programmes, and to Manage Challenging Behaviour in young people effectively.
“The Reflex programmes have been instrumental in helping young offenders break the cycle of crime in their lives and realise their true potential”
