Introducing the Change and Grow Project
My name is Louise Buchan, and I am the coordinator of the newly funded Change and Grow Project.
The programme will be delivered in partnership with ScrapAntics at our Wellgate Community Centre in Dundee over the next three years.
​
This hollistic, person-centred programme will support 12 volunteers over a nine-month period, offering structured guidance to individuals facing significant mental or physical wellbeing challenges.
Our goal is to create a programme where participants can work together as a team to support eachother and move towards a positive destination that suits them - whether through volunteering, employment, or continued education.
Programme Focus
Delivered on one day each week, in three phases over 9 months, the Change and Grow Project will:
Explore
and find personal, social, and health & development opportunities.
Discover
ways of reducing social, cultural, health, and economic barriers.
Support
individuals to become more actively engaged with their communities.
Participants will benefit from a wide range of holistic support, including:
Group & one-to-one mental and physical health support
Interactive & engaging learning and educational opportunities
Relevant employability training with ongoing guidance
Community-based, therapeutic, creative activites
