South Bristol Consortium for Young People (trading as South Bristol Youth) (2009-2018)

Howard was a founder member and independent director of this innovative approach to services for young people in South Bristol. Bringing together the secondary schools and youth service delivery agencies in the South of Bristol, the Consortium aims to use Youth Work methodology to impact positively upon young people's lives, education and leisure opportunities.

 

The project has given evidence to a parliamentary select committee looking at services for young people.

During his time as a director Howard saw the project grow from a 'good idea' to a substantial venture offering services across all Bristol Schools and employing a good number of staff. Howard stepped down in 2018 having served his term and in order to enable appointment of a new independent director with specific skills required to move the charity forward. He remains supportive of the charity and maintains regular contact with the vice chair.
