Stepping Stones for Families

Part of Organised Outdoor Community Play Fund.

The vision of Stepping Stones for Families is that all children and young people have an enjoyable life in a healthy, fair and safe environment where they are respected and supported to achieve their full potential.

For more than thirty years, Stepping Stones for Families has worked alongside children, young people and families to give them support, opportunities and a voice in tackling the effects of poverty and disadvantage in their lives.

Their aspiration is to be an organisation that makes a positive lasting difference to families, young people and communities. Headquartered in Paisley, they pride themselves on ensuring that the vast majority of their income is spent on delivering services, such as the Possilpark Outdoor Community Play Project.
