Projects

Since STAND began, we have undertaken a wide range of projects, both at home and abroad with volunteers. These are often done with charity partners based around the world. Projects have involved working with orphaned children, children and adults with physical and mental disabilities, or young women who are at risk of being trafficked, or have been rescued from trafficking, recovery support, and intergenerational work.

International Learning

Over the last 15 years we have arranged for over 1100 young people and adults to participate in short term international volunteering.

Intergenerational Work

Working with communities over the years throughout different countries we have come to realise the importance of our collective inheritance being understood and passed over to the next generation, equipping them for the challenges of their generation.

Training

In Scotland through our partnership with the Learning Alliance Scotland we deliver accredited training in peer education and peer mentoring as well as training around health and well-being and mental health.

Mental Health & Well-being

In Scotland we have been working with those involved in the Recovery networks for 15 years to assist those young people and adults with experience of substance misuse and mental health to move on and discover how they can contribute to their local and international communities. .
