  • Community-Led Youth Wellbeing Needs Analysis for the Cheviot Area School Catchment and the Wider Hurunui District
    Community-Led Youth Wellbeing Needs Analysis for the Cheviot Area School Catchment and the Wider Hurunui District Prepared by Michelle Cole, Sarah Wylie and Dr Janet Spittlehouse of The Collaborative Trust for Research and Training in Youth Health and Development, for Cheviot Area School, and of relevance to Together Hurunui and Tipu Māia Kāhui Ako January 2021 Executive Summary Background With support from Lotteries Community Research Fund, research was undertaken in the latter part of 2020 focused on the strengths and opportunities of young people in the Hurunui district, and how these can be assisted to grow. The research was initiated by Cheviot Area School, and undertaken by Michelle Cole, a Hurunui-based youth mental health specialist and Sarah Wylie, a researcher from The Collaborative Trust for Research and Training in Youth Health and Development. The research sought to answer the following questions: 1. What are the current and likely future wellbeing needs of children, young people and whānau in Hurunui? (Evidence of service and support needs, barriers to service access, service and support gaps etc.) 2. What model of service delivery and support provision is best-placed to address these wellbeing needs locally? (What services and supports are most needed, how are they best delivered, and what is possible from both a school, community and service provider perspective?) 3. If a wellbeing hub is found to meet with support, what is the best approach to develop a wellbeing hub at Cheviot School in a sustainable manner? Although commissioned by Cheviot Area School, the research is of relevance to all youth service providers across Hurunui, and is intended as a community resource.
