On the ball: Castle Vale Community Housing Association youth worker Rocky Regent keeps Reece Rickus (left) and Michael Halloran (right) off the streets as part of Castle Vale’s expanded youth project to tackle antisocial behaviour in Birmingham.

The association claims to be one of the country’s few housing associations to employ youth outreach workers. It has won a £90,000 grant from the Youth Offending Service to extend its programme for the next two years on the 1000-home Castle Vale estate.
