We’re DAY1 – a youth-focused charity on a mission to help young people in the Scottish Highlands reach their full potential.
We do this by building practical skills for life and work, nurtured through trusted relationships with adult mentors, training and real-world experiences.
Our 1-2-1 mentoring and apprenticeships take place beyond the classroom, creating fresh spaces for young people to feel seen, be heard, and become motivated to own their future.
For over 20 years, this approach has led to positive, lasting change for the young people we support. We have received extensive recognition for our work and are proud recipients of The Queen’s Award for Voluntary Services – equivalent to an MBE, this is the highest Award given to local voluntary groups in the UK.
