    Situation

    We are localy rooted and passionate about developing our young people to achieve all that they can, despite the disadvantages of growing up in one of Scotlands most deprived communities. We develop the self-esteem, skills and transferable skills through a combination of group work, drop-in sessions and street work, the majority led by local staff and volunteers and the young people themselves. We are seeking to raise money to cover our annual costs of £225,000 pounds, which covers 2 full-time workers and 15 sessional staff, as well as 2 p/t admin workers. Plase check out our website for more details.
