About

Kinlochlovin’ is a constituted Social Enterprise and OSCR registered charity which was  set up in 2015  to support young people  to participate in enhancing activities to promote health and wellbeing, social inclusion and social justice. We started off in a small classroom in Kinlochleven High School and now have our own workshop in Kinlochleven. Anna McBride is our CEO and manages all our activities, Lilli Rochford Smith is our artist in residence and sessional worker.

We aim to provide free access to both creative workshops on a weekly basis as well as early interventions to support mental health.  By engaging with Kinlochlovin’  young people will be supported in their development of confidence, personal resilience, enterprise, self-sufficiency and independence. This will enable them to become effective contributors in their own community.

 

Kinlochlovin’ is happy to work in partnership with schools and local third sector organisations to support the promotion and running of our workshops led by Lilli . In order to fund this we have been lucky enough to secure some funding and we sell our own products inspired by and sometimes produced by the young people.  All profits raised from these enterprises are put back into running and sustaining Kinlochlovin. All out youth workshops are free to ensure inclusion. We our trying to further support young peoples mental health with the provision of  Child Therapy and our Creative Minds school programme.
