02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
We will journey alongside and offer support to young people who face long-term challenges due to poverty, disadvantage, and inequality in Glasgow and the wider area. We will build long-term trusting and respectful relationships with young people and their families over years, listening to their voices and being welcomed by them to offer support. We will be persistent in our engagement, love, and support, especially if it becomes difficult due the barriers they face. We will work alongside young people in their local settings and allow outdoor residential and wilderness experiences to help them soar.
