02 Purpose and work

What the charity exists to do

We aim to reduce social isolation and poverty for the children and young people who live on Hoy. We do this by providing free weekly activities with food, snacks and door to door transport available to all. We are working on creating a dedicated youth space within our community to help foster a sense of being a part of the island from a young age. Feedback received from families and children is fantastic.
