DAY1 Training and Mentoring

20/05/2026

It’s been amazing to hear the girls’ feedback on the LifeSkills pilot we launched last year and to see the impact it has had on their experiences and growth. Hearing directly from them about what they’ve learned and how the programme has supported them makes this journey even more meaningful. Take a look at what they have to say about their experience. We’re incredibly fortunate and excited to share that, thanks to additional funding, we’ll be expanding the programme from supporting 4 girls to 15 in the new school year. We can’t wait to see the difference this next chapter will bring. ✨OWN YOUR FUTURE

DAY1 Autos wrapped up the year the best way we know how… a trip to Aviemore!

We managed to get a bit of sunshine in for some karting, then finished off with a prize giving to celebrate the year. Four students were recognised as our Most Improved, for the effort, attitude and commitment they’ve shown all year, well deserved!

While only a small group could join us on the trip, we have to say we were genuinely blown away by the standard of all 100 pupils we’ve had the privilege of supporting this year. The effort, attitude, and growth shown across the board has been exceptional.

A massive thank you to every single young person who has been part of DAY1 Autos this year. You’ve made it a year to be proud of.

We can’t wait to welcome the next 100 pupils when we return at the end of August!

Here’s our finial group of P7 pupils as they get ready for their next big step! 🎓

With the summer holidays just around the corner, these young learners will soon be heading off to S1. Throughout their time with us, they’ve been developing resilience, growing in confidence, and learning how to work together as a strong, supportive team. 💪

We’re looking forward to celebrating them at their upcoming Graduation Fun Day at the go-kart track, made possible with the support of our friends at the Bothy at Inverness Royal Academy 🏁

Building connections with local high schools plays such an important role in helping pupils feel more comfortable and confident about the transition ahead. By working together, we can help ease any worries and make this change a positive experience for everyone.

Good luck to each and every one of them as they begin this exciting new chapter – we’re so proud of you all! 🌟

Meet 1 of our final group of pupils for this year – our amazing P7s! 🎓

After the summer holidays, they’ll be making the big transition into S1, and we couldn’t be prouder of how far they’ve come. Over the past year, these young people have been building resilience, strengthening their confidence, and learning the importance of teamwork every step of the way. 💪

Keep an eye out for highlights from their Graduation Fun Day, which will be held at the go-kart track with support from our friends at the Bothy at Inverness Royal Academy – it’s set to be a fantastic celebration! 🏁

It’s so important to have strong relationships with our local high schools. Working together as a community helps ease worries and supports these pupils as they take this exciting next step.

We’re wishing them all the very best for their journey ahead – you’ve got this! 🌟 @ 😁
