WHAT WE DO

Streetlinks is a detached outreach project within Community Links Scotland whose primary aim is to identify and address the needs of 12-20 year old young people who are not currently accessing services or are in need of support.

OUR AIMS

• Identify young people and work with them in areas where they feel secure and where they regularly meet, predominantly working out on the streets
• Impart relevant information and signpost young people to partner agencies

DROP-INS

In addition to carrying out detached streetwork from 6-10pm, Streetlinks also carry out a number of youth drop-ins in venues throughout Scotland. These are held throughout the week but are generally on a Friday and Saturday night where preventing risky behaviour is a major issue. Streetlinks have a variety of games and activities that they can take to drop-ins but they also have their own minibus to take young people to facilities as well as a mobile Multi-Use Games Arena (MUGA) and a mobile climbing wall that can be taken to venues where facilities for young people are not present.
