Midlothian's Together for Positive Change project is part of the Edinburgh and South East Scotland Intensive Family Support Service.
Together for Positive Change is delivered by Barnardo's and takes a targeted approach across Midlothian, focusing on high-risk families with at least one child under 16 that are known to have a recurring need for support and face multiple barriers to moving out of poverty.
The service is aligned with Midlothian Council’s Communities and Lifelong Learning team and works in close partnership with the Early Intervention and Prevention team to identify families in need of support.
Together for Positive Change works across various Midlothian schools, taking a youth work approach to engaging with children and young people whilst working the whole family.
