News from One Step
We've been busy supporting young people, developing new resources and working on projects to strengthen mental health support across the Scottish Borders.
We'll be sharing some of our recent news and highlights here.
Alex - CEO & Clinical Lead
Working with Borders College
From 7 September, we’ll be beginning an exciting new partnership with Borders College, delivering support to students two days a week.
This is an important step in making mental health and wellbeing support more accessible to young people across the Scottish Borders. By working directly within the college environment, we hope to make it easier for students to reach out, talk to someone and access support when they need it.
We’re really looking forward to working alongside the Borders College community and sharing more about the partnership as it develops.
Improvements to our office
There have also been some changes taking place a little closer to home, with refurbishment work underway at the One Step Borders office.
The improvements will help us create a more welcoming, comfortable and functional environment for the young people who access our services, as well as for our growing team.
We’re looking forward to seeing the space take shape and sharing the finished result.
Thank you to Oregon Timber Frame Limited
We were also delighted to recently receive funding from Oregon Timber Frame Limited.
Support from local businesses and organisations plays an important part in helping One Step Borders continue our work with young people aged 16–25 across the Scottish Borders.
We’d like to say a huge thank you to the team at Oregon Timber Frame Limited for supporting our work and recognising the importance of accessible mental health and wellbeing support for young people in our community.
