About Aberlour Guardianship Scotland

We deliver this in partnership with Aberlour and Scottish Refugee Council on behalf of the Scottish Government.

We support young people to understand these processes, stand by the young peoples’ side throughout these processes, support them to access the help they need and advocate when needed to ensure their views are clearly listened to. Our guardians support the young people to make informed decisions about their future and to settle into a new life in Scotland.
