Abstract

This report provides preliminary findings of the first ever evaluation of the Police Scotland Youth Volunteer (PSYV) Programme. The evaluation is commissioned by Police Scotland and has been undertaken to identify the impact taking part in the PSYV programme has for young people, their lives and on the wider community they are part of. Police Scotland wish to understand what positive outcomes, if any, the programme enables and where there could be changes or improvements to enhance PSYVs experiences through taking part. The evaluation is being conducted by the Institute for Public Safety, Crime & Justice (IPSCJ) at the University of Northampton and will run for approximately two and a half years, with a final report being produced in Autumn 2025.
