We are seeking funding to pilot and develop the Minimum Viable Product of an online game designed to support young people?s understanding and practice of healthy relationships: titled Relationship Goals. Domestic and gender-based abuse are critical issues in young people?s lives. 16-25 year olds are the age group most likely to experience an abusive relationship (ONS, 2018), yet often the least likely to identify themselves as such. Teenagers with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) are twice as likely to be victims of abuse as their non-disabled peers, with disabled girls the most affected (Public Health, 2015). Infantilising stereotypes of disability and autism only increase their isolation and vulnerability. In 2019, a Sex Education Forum survey of teachers revealed a staggering 99% wanted more help educating pupils with SEND. Caregivers consulted by Tender also told us they are keen for their children to have fulfilling relationships but felt underconfident about how to support them. Young people are frequent consumers of online games and their expectations of relationships are often influenced by media they consume (FPA, 2018). Sadly, these often contain confusing messages around relationships, or condone unhealthy behavior. However, research also shows that games can provide a space where neurodiverse children feel safe, engaged and develop confidence and communication. Since 2019, Tender has worked with gaming experts to create a game with positive impacts on players? awareness and adoption of healthy relationships. Co-designed with 15 young people with SEND, our MVP is a fun, accessible resource for teaching Relationships Education: promoting kind, equal relationships as aspirational and exciting. ?I think playing this game would help me get more confident trying to have a relationship in the real world? - Young person, testing group, 2020 We propose to pilot this resource through monitored use in multiple contexts - including schools/families ? and develop it further to become an effective, sharable resource within our sector.

Young people aged 16-25 with learning disabilities and special needs are particularly vulnerable to abuse and exploitation. This community has few resources to educate and explain about healthy relationships, safety, and recognising signs of abuse. Tender Arts and Education’s research shows that this group is well disposed to digital engagement and gaming. Tender is drawing on its arts and theatre work with young people to create a gaming digital tool to enable young people with disabilities to learn and understand more about healthy relationships and how to keep safe. The tool will initially work in partnership with Tenders existing education programmes,with scope for future development.

Through specialist arts and drama workshops, this project builds on robust foundations established by the consortium's work funded by London Councils since 2013. Building on the momentum created to date, the project will establish Centres of Excellence in each borough, adding an enhanced stage to the existing project through a champion school programme. This enables us to reach more vulnerable young people and carry out more activities ultimately leading to whole school change. We will work with schools to identify targeted groups of young people at high-risk of experiencing abuse due to multiple disadvantage. The consortium will provide early intervention group work with these groups to decrease their vulnerability. Each school will receive support in developing effective policies to prevent domestic abuse and sexual bullying and respond to disclosures from students. Outcomes: Young people warn each other of abusive relationships, more young people challenge abusive behaviour safely and have the opportunity to comment on national policy and programmes of work.
