Megan’s Space
Following the suicide of Megan Copeland age 20, Megan’s Family set up Megan’s Space to provide essential prevention, support, advocacy and therapeutic services to children and young adults who are unable to access the help they need through traditional routes whether due to lack of access, cost, or perceived taboo to prevent any young person resorting to suicide.
Homestart Clackmannshire
Home-Start Clackmannanshire is a volunteer led family support charity for any local family with at least one child under the age of 12. Our proposed new “Bumps to Babies” group will provide a supportive, nurturing environment for expectant and new parents who are experiencing peri-natal mental health challenges. Our goal is to promote mental wellbeing, reduce isolation, and offer practical and emotional support during the transition to parenthood, reducing the likelihood of families reaching crisis.
The Leanne Fund
The Leanne Fund provides vital support to children affected by Cystic Fibrosis across Greater Glasgow & Clyde, Ayrshire & Arran and Lanarkshire – 50% of these live within the top areas of deprivation in Scotland.
Through our Get Active project, 70 children will engage in sports and fitness activities through the provision of equipment and gym/sports club memberships, improving their overall fitness and importantly lung health while promoting social interaction and improved wellbeing.
