Doing car-based youth justice appointments during young people's mobility transitions

Abstract: This chapter uses a mobilities lens to develop understandings of discretionary youth justice practitioner lifts in a large English rural area. Geographically dispersed youth justice produces onerous access requirements for a population that has impaired mobility in the context of past learning, present transitions and imagined futures. Although urban opportunity clustering and assumed ‘automobility’ have produced barriers for poor, rural-dwelling young people, recent research has revealed new openings for car-based support and relationship building through discretionary ‘mobile work’. Recommendations will suggest that non-linear mobility trajectories and the relationships between mobility learning/transitions and static/moving practice need to be better understood.
