The award winning Pathfinder project is a partnership programme delivered across North West Glasgow with Dumbarton Road Corridor Youth Project (DRCYP) delivered across North West Glasgow by Dougie Wemyss, Kirstie Martin, Rachel Hall and Gerard Espie.
The Project supports 60-80 young people a year – with initial engagement sessions with Gerard and the DRC Youth Engagement team followed by a tailored induction and mentored work placement of up to twelve weeks with WorkingRite Project Coordinators.
The Pathfinder Project was an 18 month project (2016-18), since extended until March 2023, funded through the Integrated Grant Fund (IGF) and Glasgow Communities Fund (GCF). It is the largest project of its kind in North West Glasgow. The grant was provided with the intention of reducing the level of offending and is part of the North West Sector Youth Employment Programme. This has furthered our expertise in working with those young people ‘most at risk’.
