Cowdenbeath | Community Support & Development
The Initiative's youth project is based in areas of multiple deprivation and social exclusion in West Fife. The youth project provides new opportunities for young people to raise their self esteem and confidence. It promotes youth led activities.
Why the community needs usAs an ex-mining area, Cowdenbeath and Kelty suffers from high unemployment, low self confidence, benefit dependency and low educational attainment. Many of the young people have low or no career or future aspirations and general low self-esteem.
Our impact on the communityThe Initiative has a proven track record of providing quality services to the people in Cowdenbeath and Kelty. We work with around 350 young people aged 11-18 each year. The Initiative aims to provide a unique service and works in partnership.
