Starting your journey
Lasting change comes through a sense of empowerment.
By encouraging an open mindset to try new things, having engaged conversations, mentoring and learning new life skills, individuals can slowly but surely build their confidence and self-belief. Our role is to enable them to take the first steps towards volunteering or employment.
FAQs
I have pending convictions, can Apex Scotland still help me?
At Apex Scotland, we support people at all stages of their journey, including those with pending convictions. We understand that this can be a challenging time, and we’re here to provide guidance and practical assistance to help you move forward positively. Whether you’re awaiting a court decision or planning your future, our services are designed to support you in addressing barriers and building a path toward your personal goals.
Are you part of statutory organisations like Social Work or Job Center Plus?
Apex Scotland is an impartial, third-sector organisation, which means we operate independently to support your needs. However, some of our services and programmes do receive funding from statutory organisations.
How often do I need to come to appointments?
At Apex Scotland, our services are tailored to meet your individual needs, so the frequency of attendance will depend on your needs and personal goals. We work with you to create a schedule that supports your progress. Rest assured, we aim to keep your commitments manageable and focused on helping you achieve positive outcomes.
Is what I tell you confidential?
At Apex Scotland, we follow strict guidelines to protect your privacy, and any information you provide is handled in accordance with data protection laws. We will only share your details with others if you give us permission, or if we are legally required to do so—for example, if there is a risk of harm to yourself or others. Our goal is to provide a safe, supportive environment where you can feel comfortable discussing your needs openly.
