About Us

We do everything from helping children access free meals and hot food to offering a warm place in the winter. Kids in the community can enjoy access to play areas as a means of childcare, fun events, school uniforms, clothing swaps, markets and baby massages. We offer the adults in the equation in-house counselling and support groups, like the New Mums Club.
We also run our Easter Egg, Back to School, Halloween and Christmas events for children living in poverty in Central Glasgow, Ayrshire and Fife
Our Mission
Helping Families Like Us
Juniors tackles the struggles of poverty by helping families out wherever they can. This could be with a hot meal, with a warm place, with in-house support, with childcare, with a community marketplace, with a book club, or with just a fun place to spend the day.
Throughout the year we launch major campaigns to reach a wider audience across Scotland such as our Easter Egg campaign, Back to School uniform campaign, events for Halloween and Christmas, community swap shops and our large Christmas campaign which ensures every child receives new winter wear, a toy and a shopping voucher for families finding the festive period a struggle. Our campaigns help children across South Lanarkshire, Central Glasgow, Ayrshire, Fife and Edinburgh.
We also run our Easter Egg, Back to School, Halloween and Christmas events for children living in poverty in Central Glasgow, Ayrshire and Fife.
