Aberlour LifeWorks (Fife)

Aberlour works with Scotland's most vulnerable children, young people and their families who have suffered from neglect, trauma, abuse or family breakdown. Aberlour is Scotland's largest Children's Charity.

Aberlour LifeWorks (Fife) helps young people to make the transition to independent living by boosting their confidence, skills and self-esteem. Run in partnership with Fife Council, this service aims to improve life chances for vulnerable young people and help them develop important life skills for the future.

The project expands on the work of Aberlour's existing Throughcare and Aftercare Team. It offers support to young people who have left or are preparing to leave Local Authority care, but who are not eligible for statutory Aftercare support, either because they left care before their official school leaving age, or because they are unwilling or unable to engage with the Aftercare support available.

Aberlour has a national membership with SMN and we have new projects starting with a mentoring focus, one of these being LifeWorks in Fife.
