Aberlour Youth Point (Moray)
Service Provision
We help children and young people in Moray who may be struggling with their emotions and behaviour, prompting concerns about their well-being.
Our team is there for children and young people who need extra support. Due to their circumstances, they may be at risk of exclusion from school or struggle with their emotions. Some feel they have no-one to turn to for help. Some might have a chaotic home life, for example, other family members misusing drug and alcohol. This part of the service is known as intensive community support. Referrals only through Social Work.
We also offer a mentoring service which matches trained and committed volunteers with young people who would benefit from extra support. Young people may need extra support if they struggle to make and sustain friendships or are at risk of social exclusion. In general, mentors can provide relief to young people experiencing difficulties in life. Our mentors give them someone to talk to about their worries, allowing them to practice their social skills. Referrals – self referral, from parents, teachers or anyone who has a link to a young person
