Ariel aims to tackle the grooming and exploitation that lead to violence experienced by children across the UK. We believe our approach to violence prevention education can be scaled up to reach a wide audience of children as it can be delivered by teachers as part of the national curriculum. The key to our scaling strategy is capacity-building teachers in primary schools so that they can replicate the impacts that we are seeing on Merseyside.
In order to achieve this aim and to continuously improve the quality of our work we are looking for partners who are willing to implement our programmes of learning, collect feedback and then work with us to identify ways that we can refine, improve and scale up delivery of our online resources.
If you work in a school, local authority or other interested organisation and would like to become a partner, please send us an email using the link below:

Ariel Trust is a not-for-profit organisation; we offer demonstrator projects in order to share good practice with potential partners. Our aim is to collaborate with people, who are tackling the impact that violence has on the lives of children. By working together in order to evaluate and continuously improve violence reduction interventions we can maximise the impact of that work.
In exchange for access to our existing resources we ask development partners to help collect data from children, in order to measure changes in their “social competence skills”, and feedback from teachers so that we can continue to improve the quality of our online resources.
We aim to grow development partnerships into properly funded projects, which scale up the reach of our work. Our not-for-profit status means that every penny that is invested in our work is reinvested back into the ongoing evaluation and improvement of violence reduction education resources.
Our vision includes developing a national network of partners, focused on the emerging challenges associated with children’s use of social media. This partnership would have the capacity to listen to children across the UK and create scenario based programs based on the stories that they tell us. By working together this network could continuously evaluate and improve the quality of those programmes in order to develop the most effective violence reduction education that is possible.
