Following successful pilot programmes in five local communities in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Midlothian and South Lanarkshire, Rainer CtC has recently completed a major 19,000 pupil city-wide survey in Edinburgh.

The Risk and Protection Audit Reports produced by Rainer CtC for the City of Edinburgh Council have been published in pdf format on the Council's website - further information on the survey and copies of the Reports can be obtained as follows: -

(N.B. Reports are large - between 1.6mb and 2.8mb each)

The City of Edinburgh Council, partner agencies and local residents are using the results of the survey to develop and implement a long term prevention strategy to reduce the involvement of young people in crime, drug (including alcohol) abuse, school failure and school age pregnancy in the city.

Leith

Leith in Edinburgh was one of the five pilot programmes and the Leith CtC Action Plan was launched in 2004 and is currently being implemented. Work on alcohol was one of the five main strands of the Action Plan - the other strands were family, school, community and youth.

Cranhill / Ruchazie

Cranhill / Ruchazie in Glasgow was another of the pilot programmes. The Triple P-Positive Parenting Program is featured in the second edition of CtC's Promising Approaches and it is a multi-level, parenting and family support strategy that aims to prevent severe behavioural, emotional and developmental problems in children by enhancing the knowledge, skills and confidence of parents.  It can be delivered either on a one-to-one basis or in a group setting. Triple P courses are now running in Cranhill / Ruchazie, led by participants in a training course funded by the local CtC programme as part of its Action Plan.

Further information about Triple P can be found in Promising Approaches and on the www.triplep.net website.
