​

Learning Disability

They offer a wide range of adult harm reduction and recovery focused services across Scotland. This includes assertive outreach, initial engagement, community and residential crisis and stabilisation.

​

Mental Health

They support people with a range of mental health and emotional conditions, and other complex needs to recover and live as independently, actively and engaged in their community as possible.

 

Justice

They provide residential and community engagement programmes for individuals whose criminal behaviours can lead to a pattern of re-offending as a result of underlying issues and poor life-choices.

 

Homelessness
