Inspiring Young Futures is for young people, encouraging them to think about what they would like to achieve and helps them work towards their goals.

The programme offers regular community-based outreach support wrapped around an 8-day Wilderness Journey usually in the highlands of Scotland. Through intensive learning and personal development individuals will consolidate their new skills, boost confidence, motivation and aspirations.

Inspiring Young Futures is designed for young people aged 16-25, struggling with a range of challenging circumstances: care-experienced background, involvement in offending / anti-social behaviour, history of substance misuse, homelessness, low academic achievement, fragmented family relationships, and early stage social work involvement.

Our programmes provide support for up to 9 months helping individuals to improve their mental health and wellbeing, reduce their risk of offending and prepare for work. We work with them so they can make and sustain connections to services and employment, education, training or volunteering opportunities within their communities.
