Better Lives Partnership (BLP) aims to develop a range of opportunities for young people with autism and related disabilities.  We want to ensure young people in Dumfries & Galloway within this group do not face barriers to fulfilling their potential, are supported and empowered to live meaningful and independent lives.

We want to bring young women together to advocate, mentor & celebrate International Women's Day 2022 through creating a network of young women in every secondary school within Dumfries & Galloway where they will have a role model who has their own unique story to tell. The young people will take part in workshops alongside their role model and peers and will come together in March 2022 to a conference designed by them.

Scottish Student Saver I plan to build, promote, and produce a website and app for Scottish students and young people that can help them save money, obtain financial advice and other information on a whole range of topic including: Help on setting up a bank account, saving for a house for example.
