Prevention and Intervention

The Music Works uses music as a powerful tool for prevention and intervention, meeting young people at every stage of need.

Our primary prevention work reaches young people early through open access studios and community outreach before risks escalate. Secondary prevention supports those showing early signs of disengagement through targeted schools programmes and mental health interventions. Tertiary prevention provides intensive mentoring for young people involved in the justice system, helping them build new skills and positive pathways forward.

This integrated approach means young people can access the right support at the right time, moving flexibly between programmes as their needs change.
