| About us | Skills Exchange SCIO work with local people who are unemployed and disadvantaged young people who are struggling to move into the world of work. Many of the people we work with have additional support needs or poor mental health and many older participants are socially isolated and finding it difficult to get back into activities after the pandemic. We provide advice, guidance, support and training courses in life skills, personal development, mental health and wellbeing and employability. We also provide job clubs and job searching assistance and link with other third sector organisations and employers to provide work placements and volunteering opportunities. Although based in East Kilbride we also work in Blantyre, Clydesdale and Larkhall. |
| Our Wish | Our wish is for a financial donation to allow us to continue providing support to the people of South Lanarkshire we work with. Any donation big or small will enable us to keep purchasing ingredients to prepare hot meals for our clients. Due to the cost of living crisis many of our clients have struggled so we have offered meals and snacks to all who have participated in our activities and possibly any surplus could be used to treat our clients to an outing on completion of their courses. |
