One Community Scotland
Charity registered in Scotland SC050378
At One Community Scotland we offer help and support to families and young people who are settling in to life in Scotland. We have recruited ‘champions’ with origins in the Horn of Africa to help us do this. Whether it’s getting to know the city, improving language skills or applying for jobs the ladies are there to help. Our champions all have experience of settling in Scotland and have been given a range of training so they can ensure people get the right support from people and services in the city to overcome any challenges.
