Stop the Inferno.

A multi-agency project has commenced at Jennyfields Youth Club called ‘Stop the Inferno’.  This project is in response to the increase in fire setting in the local community and is in partnership with North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service, North Yorkshire Police and North Yorkshire Children and Families Service Prevention.  Funding from Harrogate Community Safety and the Granby My Neighbourhood Group was awarded to pay for an artist to work with the young people.  The group have written a story and script which is now being formed into a graphic novel for distribution around the community.  The graphic novel will be used to help educate children and young people on the dangers of fire setting and the consequences that could affect them, their families and their communities.
