This is a personal training programme with an employability
focus aimed at people who are prescribed methadone or who
have previously been on methadone and who live in the South
East of Glasgow.
The aims of the programme are to promote daily routine,
raise confidence and self esteem and assist individuals
in raising levels of physical fitness. There is also access
to alternative therapies such as reiki classes, massage,
and meditation.
In addition, there is a strong focus on developing individual
core skills such as communication, problem solving, computing
skills and team working. All clients receive 1 to 1 support,
opportunity awareness sessions, cv writing assistance and
interview preparation. The main aim is for individuals to
gain access to voluntary work, further education and employment.
We will also link clients with other support agencies if
required.
