We are extending our support to young people in need across Aberdeen City and Aberdeenshire by working with Befriend a Child!✨

Dedicated to helping young people growing up in difficult circumstances, we will be running a 2-week campaign across 50 of our digital screens. 👏

Thanks to a generous donation from Hays Travel Aberdeen bonaccordcentre , 7 of our befriendees and their befrienders went for an outing to Farm Stop

The children and young people we support, and their volunteers absolutely love Farm stop, it is a firm favourite for outings.

Last month, three of our befriendees and their befrienders met up to take a trip to Innoflate Aberdeen and Burger King together! 🍔🍟

We love to see friendships forming with not only the children but also their volunteers! 💛

As another new term begins, we wanted to share some photos from last term's youth clubs in Cummings Park, Northfield & Kincorth! 🥳

Daniel, our youth club leader has run a host of activities such as making overnight oats, magnet making, Easter egg hunts and building bird boxes.

A massive thank you to Ocean Installer, Subsea 7, Aberdeen Funeral Directors and ATPI for donating Easter Eggs to the children we support & their families!! 🐣💛

The children were so excited to receive their easter eggs on Saturday and take ones home to their siblings. 😁

It's #FairerAberdeenFriday today!
Here's an interview with Daniel from Befriend a Child! Hear how the fund supports the incredible work they undertake daily. Thank you to everyone who came down and supported us #feelgoodfriday #lovefaireraberdeen

Unfortunately, women leaders are still underrepresented, with women taking only 30% of management roles in the UK, that is why we are so proud to have an amazing all-women senior management team who strive for equality and excellence every day. 🥳
