Risk-Avert is 10 years old! Find out about some of our achievements by clicking here.

The 2022/23 academic year marks 10 years since the original pilot of Risk-Avert was completed in Essex. From this original pilot of 8 schools, developed the programme we see today.

Risk-Avert is now delivered by schools across the UK and has been proven to improve outcomes for young people. 

To mark this occasion we have produced the infographic below which highlights the scale of Risk-Avert over the past decade and provides statistics on the successes of the programme. 

     

The infographic is also available to download as a PDF, feel free to share this with anyone who may be interested in it. 

You can download the infographic here.
