New Team SCIO is a Christian charity, alongside young people who hang out on the streets of Govan. We aim to support physical, social, emotional and spiritual development. We make connections with young people through street/detached youth work, strengthening those relationships through other youth work activities, for example trips. We are alongside and serve young people on the streets whether they are interested in finding out more about God or not. We make space for young people to ask us questions about what we believe. The detached youth work sessions target 11-18 year olds but we engage with younger age groups where appropriate and relevant. If we have worked with young people before they turn 18 and if they want to, we carry on working with them until they are 21.

We are a strengths based team that value lived experience. We work with employees to develop shift patterns that work well for both young people and employees.
