Identity and Cohesion
The Identity And Cohesion programme has been running successfully for the last two years and is commissioned by Bradford Youth offending Team.

The aim of the project is to deliver a diverse range of events that challenge young people's personal views and perceptions around integration, racism, gang culture and faith. The project provides the young people with a safe environment to discuss and learn more around these issues that affect their everyday life.  Over the last two years successful events include:

• Advert for integration

• Interfaith conference: Similarities not difference

• Territorial gang culture: My space

• Mosaic: Bradford through my eyes

• Knife and Gun crime: The challenges

• Dance: Dance together

• Graffiti: Belonging And Alienation

• Rap Project: I will speak
