SUPPORTING FAMILIES

Building brighter futures for families.

The FARE Family Employability Support Project, funded by Clyde Gateway and the Scottish Government, is part of Glasgow Futures Demonstration of Change. We take a whole-family, holistic approach to helping families move toward sustainable employment and long-term wellbeing.

Our mission is simple:

Eliminate child poverty by helping families increase income, remove barriers, and access real opportunities for growth.

As part of Glasgow Futures, we proudly follow the “No Wrong Door” approach — where every service is the right one, and every person is met with dignity, compassion, and solutions. Together with our partners, we break down barriers and build pathways that are person-led, honest, and empowering.
