Tides is a free monthly parcel initiative delivering handcrafted coastal letters, original Highland photography, and a pre-stamped reply postcard to isolated young people in care settings across the Highlands.

Caithness KLICS was established in 2013 due to the demand for support for Young Carers in Caithness. A young carer is a young person who cares, unpaid, for a person who has any type of physical or mental illness, physical and/or mental disability or misuses substances such as alcohol or drugs. Caithness KLICS support Young Carers from age 5-18 years old.

Youth Highland celebrates our 41st birthday this year, and currently supports 60 member clubs from across the Highland region and since 2016 set up and facilitates the Highland Voluntary Youth Network currently made up of 250+ organisations and individuals delivering and supporting work with young people.

The Place is a third sector charity operating without statutory funding, relying on grants and fundraising to deliver vital services. Across our two venues -Drop In and The Field- we provide a safe, welcoming environment for young people five days six nights per week. We support those disengaged from education or mainstream services, many of whom experience instability, poverty and risks such as substance misuse and exploitation.
