Oxfordshire Projects (TRAX) exists as a safety net for young people struggling with recognised paths through education. When things have got tough and even alternative provision is not working, or even at the risk of issues becoming apparent, TRAX steps in.
Since the early 90s, the charity has developed the skills and resources centered around well-being including mental health and social care underpinning vocational courses that provide a purpose for young people, including moving on into adulthood. Over the last five years, these courses have expanded alongside the qualified support working with our partners. Oxfordshire Projects (TRAX) is an inspirational place for young people to break the struggles and find a purpose with high-quality outcomes. Over the last 12 months, our graduating group achieved 90% success in their chosen vocational qualification. With small groups focusing on “what good looks like for each person” and individual plans TRAX delivers the change of direction young people need to step out with confidence into a world where they can make their contribution to themselves and society.
