Biggar Youth Project
People: Supporting young people to fulfil their potential
We would like to provide new groups, activities and specialist programmes, as we move towards a more person-centred environment for young people in Biggar.
About this cause
Biggar Youth Project aims to re-establish and build relationships with the young people, by creating new groups, activities and specialist programmes. We plan to transition away from a solely ‘drop-in’ model of youth work to a more supported, person-centred environment. It is so important for young people feel supported by the community. It is a great foundation for mental health and wellbeing.
How this cause brings people in the community together
Our project is in the heart of the community and, by reaching out and involving the young people, we can focus on achieving aspirations and be tailored to needs and unique circumstances. Young people can propose and design new groups, activities and specialist programmes. We can collaborate with the local secondary school to offer a different space not connected to school.
