Re-Solv Stafford

Welcome to Re-Solv Stafford

Re-Solv is working in partnership with Stafford Borough Council to run a community-based prevention project.

Re-Solv has developed a community-based prevention model working with young people, community members, families and schools to build resilience within communities and enable young people to make healthy, positive life choices. Funded by Stafford Borough Council, key elements of this work include:

  • Providing information and resources on drugs, alcohol and mental health and the support available locally.
  • Giving parents information about alcohol, substance misuse and mental health issues – and how to spot and respond to the early signs that a young person may be struggling.
  • Delivering free training sessions for professionals and/or community volunteers so they can help community members who may need additional support – giving them the tools to spot the signs, have initial conversations and signpost.
  • Delivering age appropriate activity-based prevention sessions in schools or local youth groups for young people with a focus on strengthening resilience.
