FARE

Supporting the Easterhouse community through education, wellbeing, and community action. Together, we’re building a better future.

Visit our LinkTree for more information: https://linktr.ee/FAREScotland FARE is a grassroots charity operating in Easterhouse, in Glasgow. It was established in 1989 by local people in response to the lack of support and opportunities in the community, especially for families and young people. It improves life in the neighbourhood by offering activities that improve people’s aspirations, enhance people’s standards of living, and tackle territorialism and related violence. We use youth clubs, sport and art activities, family support groups, holidays and adult mentors to engage with children and young people.

The event was planned and delivered by the school's Mental Health Ambassadors, who are working hard to promote positive mental health, raise awareness and encourage young people to support one another.

It was fantastic to see the ambassadors showcasing their work and creating opportunities for important conversations around mental wellbeing within the school community.

A huge well done to all of the pupils involved!

A fantastic Community Open Evening at St Mungo's Academy!🌟

Our FARE Scotland Family Liaison Officers and Youth Workers based within St Mungo's Academy recently delivered another successful Community Open Evening, bringing together a wide range of organisations to support local families and residents.

The event gave people the opportunity to access information, advice and support on everything from housing, benefits, education, health and wellbeing, careers, training and family support, all under one roof.

Alongside a range of partner organisations, colleagues from across FARE were on hand to share information about our Volunteering Programme, Family Employability Service and wider Community Services, helping attendees discover the support and opportunities available in their local community.

Through FARE's partnership with the British Gas Energy Trust, attendees could also access energy advice and support.

The evening also featured a free clothing drive, food bank, free refreshments and the chance to connect directly with organisations offering practical help and guidance.

A huge well done to our Family Liaison and Youth Work team for organising such a valuable event and thank you to all the organisations, partners and community members who made it such a success. Together, we're building stronger communities.

🌱 Community Allotment Update 🌱

Our Busy Bees have been making the most of the autumn season at the FARE Community Allotment, learning through hands-on experiences and enjoying everything the garden has to offer.

The children took part in science experiments using purple cabbage, lemon juice and bicarbonate of soda to explore acids and alkalis. They also harvested runner beans, collected seeds to plant next year, dried herbs including rosemary, bay leaves and lemon balm, and picked fresh vegetables to take home and try.

There was plenty of fun too, from measuring sunflowers and weighing beans to autumn sorting games, nature art and bug hunts. One of the highlights was discovering a brightly coloured grey dagger caterpillar and learning that it will eventually become a moth.🫛

A big thank you to our dedicated volunteers who continue to help keep the allotment thriving through gardening, organising equipment and supporting improvement works.

The week finished with children, community groups and Community Lunch participants enjoying delicious home-grown stewed apple and pear on puff pastry.

These activities help support learning, wellbeing, curiosity and a stronger connection with nature while bringing our community together. 🌿
