Every year we run a summer programme, providing opportunities for young people and their families in the area throughout the school holidays, free of charge and including lunch/travel.

This gives young people the chance to take part in fun activities that can be difficult to afford and to learn new skills. For families they can spend quality time together and mix with other families.

It’s breathing space for people making difficult financial choices every day, an opportunity to relax and feel supported, and a day full of fun and laughter which all ultimately leads to improved health and well-being for the whole family.

The programmes involves a variety of trips for example; Rock climbing, Dalkeith Country Park, North Berwick Beach, trampolining and swimming.

Last year (2023) 156 young people attended our 12 trips and 300 people attended our 7 family trips.

As the cost of living continues to be challenging, increasing all our charitable costs and funding is more competitive than ever we are hoping to raise some much needed funds for our summer activities.

Everything raised in this campaign will go towards providing a memorable summer for the young people and families we work with and your support is hugely appreciated.
