Great morning at @AbercornSecSch hearing about their Outdoor Learning Programme. 🌿

Proud to see Kevin, Ellie and Kenzie sharing their experiences. Fantastic to meet pupils, parents, teachers and partner organisations. 💙👏 #AWAREScotland

It’s #VolunteersWeek and we’re saying a huge thank you to every AWARE volunteer. 💙

From football and yoga to Monthly Hangs and residential trips, their commitment help amazing young people make friends, build confidence and create lasting memories.

Thank you. 🙌 #AWAREScotland

Great to have Alanna back leading art after her maternity break 🎨

Our dance sessions continue to go from strength to strength, with confidence growing every month 💃

Also lovely to welcome some new volunteers along ❤️

Sunshine, pizza, music, games and a treasure hunt around Queen’s Park ☀️🍕🎶

Our May Monthly Hang was such a special day. The young people and volunteers had the best time together and the atmosphere all afternoon was amazing.

What a start to our summer activities 💚

@queensparkfc Great news - congratulations @llongridge7 🙌🏻

[Queen's Park FC @queensparkfc]

Fantastic for all the great work you do 👏🏻

Absolutely blown away by this support. 💚

A huge thank you to The Stuart McCaffer Foundation for donating an incredible £28,000.

This will help fund respite trips, new initiatives and so many more opportunities for the young people and families we support.

Volunteer of the Month 👏

Huge well done to Leo - a long time volunteer who still makes every Monthly Hang despite uni and work, and joined our Aviemore trip too.

Kind, patient, and brilliant with the young people.

Fully deserved 💚

Brilliant Art & Dance session last week 🎨💃

Loads of young people creating great artwork, welcoming Martha for her first session, and finishing with a full music video 🎬

Creative, fun, and exactly what AWARE is all about

[AWARE Scotland @AwareScotland]

Biggest Monthly Hang yet - 67 young people & volunteers 🙌

Nando’s, Minted ice cream, and a private screening of Super Mario at the Grosvenor.

Great to welcome new faces and an incredible atmosphere all night.

Huge thanks to the Grosvenor ❤️

[AWARE Scotland @AwareScotland]

Huge congratulations to Siobhan who completed the Kiltwalk yesterday 👏

She’s raised over £1000 enough to fully fund one of our Monthly Hangs for 40-50 young people.

Amazing effort - thank you Siobhan! 💙

[AWARE Scotland @AwareScotland]

18 young people. Non-stop energy. A thriller of a final game. Ross with the winner in the last seconds. ⚽️

Special mention to Laurence, who took a shot to the head and still came back for more - the definition of a committed volunteer. 🤣

Great boxing session today 🥊

Big thanks to former pro @joeham56 at Nightmare Gym for an inclusive, high-energy session for our young people and volunteers.

Loads of fun and a few future champs in there ⭐

Volunteer of the Month – Eva 💙

At just 18, Eva balances college + a par time job but still gives so much time to our young people.

An incredible role model who’s been on multiple trips and a proud Aidan Banks Award winner.

Keep being a star 👏
