Youth justice - support for children who have come to the attention of the police and victims of crime
If you are aged 10 to 17, and have come to the attention of the police, you may be told to work with us, the Youth Justice Service. We will work with you to support you and help you understand what is going on for you and how you can lead a positive life.
We also support victims of crimes committed by children.
