Can you help vulnerable young people at Christmas?

Description

We are the Bridges Project, based in Musselburgh. We offer Youth Work services for young people aged 12-25 across East and Midlothian.

We provide a holistic, person-centred service that wraps around young people to meet their needs. All the young people we support through the Christmas groups are aged 12-18 and experience one or more forms of disadvantage. Many young people are socially isolated, anxious and vulnerable and the groups offer them an opportunity to meet peers in a safe, relaxed and non-judgmental space, while also providing them with vital life and social skills.

We work with young people one-on-one and in groups.

How you can help us support young people at Christmas:

We would like support to purchase materials and ingredients for Christmas arts and crafts and cooking groups we will be running with young people at Bridges Project in the lead-up to Christmas.

Our Christmas cooking groups are a particular highlight, with many young people experiencing having a proper Christmas meal for the very first time.

Any donations will help us enhance the experience of the vulnerable young people we support.

The easiest way to donate is via bank transfer to our account, but we would also be delighted to receive an Amazon Gift Card for the crafts and a Supermarket Voucher for baking.
