About Aberlour Youthpoint Moray

Our Youthpoint Moray service provides help to children and young people in Moray who may be struggling with their emotions and behaviour, prompting concerns about their well-being. Our young people's workers provide one-to-one and group work support for our children and young people, in a safe and relaxed setting. They help them to understand the issues that are affecting them, that can sometimes be the cause of their behaviour. They help them take steps to overcoming their difficulties at home, school and in the community. The team also work with other family members, parents and carers to improve relationships at home.

Aberlour Youthpoint Moray provides three distinct services to young people in Moray; Intensive Community Support (ICS), Early Help and Mentoring and YP Zone.

The intensive community support service, funded by The Moray Council, works with young people and families to help them achieve their full potential and develop important life skills through non-formal educational activities. ICS also supports young people and families to gain a better understanding of themselves, others and society by providing a safe, non-judgemental and nurturing environment. This is delivered via 1 to 1's, group work, and family support.
