"Having use of the Purbeck Youth & Community Centre has enabled a young person who has been struggling with attendance in school to keep focused on his future ”
Headmaster
"Kevin and his team have provided DLC students the opportunity to work on key issues such as defiance, abusive language & threatening behaviour. They have worked with some of the most vulnerable students in Dorset & ensured that students are safe & have chance to work on issues in a calm & caring environment. The impact of these sessions has been that students are able to focus on their academic studies whilst in the centre"
