Zero Tolerance is re-running its Under Pressure training for youth work practitioners following the success of previous sessions.

This free 2.5-hour training session explores the pressures young people face today, including harmful online content, gender stereotypes, surveillance culture, and the wider social and economic climate. The session looks at how these pressures can impact young people’s intimate relationships and encourages practitioners to reflect on the implications for their own work and practice.
