                                                              > Prince's Trust Team Programme

 Nationally The Prince's trust and the Fire and Rescue service have been working together since 1992. Together, we've helped thousands of young people to overcome their barriers and get their lives back on track. By offering young people support at a critical stage of their lives, we can help them tackle their problems before they become to acute. The Fire and Rescue service recognise the team programme as a unique opportunity to reach young people and educate them on community values and citizenship, fire safety and road safety awareness. Over 45% of the Princes trust team programmes are delivered by the Fire and Rescue service delivery partners.
