02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
AWARE Scotland supports young people, particularly those facing disability, ill-health, financial hardship or other disadvantage, to feel included and valued and to reach their potential. We provide completely free, inclusive activities, weekly classes, monthly group sessions, day trips, sailing and residential respite experiences across Scotland. These opportunities promote physical activity and wellbeing, build confidence and independence, develop social and emotional skills, and create lasting friendships. Participants are identified through recommendations from schools, clubs and similar projects, and our activities are delivered with the support of staff, volunteers and partner organisations.

Constitutional objectives
Aware Scotland believes that all young people no matter their life experience or background have a right to happiness and opportunities for self development. Our vision is to help those most in need achieve their full potential as valued members of our community. We do this through supported respite breaks in the Scottish countryside focused on physical activity, mental wellbeing and fun. We seek to provide unique experience, build confidence and engender life long friendship. Our charitable purpose in relation to the 2005 Act is the relief of those in need by reason of age, ill-health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage. The activities will be for the fulfilment of those who are disadvantaged and in need. We will identify those in need by way of recommendations from schools, clubs and similar projects to ourselves.
