Rosemount Lifelong Learning's work
Donation protected
28 members of the Rosemount Lifelong Learning community are doing the Big Fun Run in Bellahouston Park, Glasgow on the 10th of October 2015.
We are working to raise money for much-needed improvements to the nursery and for the continued work of Rosemount Lifelong Learning.
Our first priority will be to repair the sensory room at the nursery (bubble tower and twinkle lights) and buy physical equipment for the outdoor space.
At Rosemount Lifelong Learning we’ve worked for and with the community in and around Royston for almost three decades to ensure everyone in North Glasgow has a chance of reaching their full potential.
Royston is one of the most deprived areas of Scotland. The area has been affected by massive economic dislocation and the collapse of traditional industries. In the local area there are 51 % more children in poverty compared to the city average and out of work benefit rates are 51 % higher (GCC Neighbourhood profiles). In 2014, 20% of people in the NE constituency had no qualifications, which is more than double the Scottish rate of 9.4% (NOMIS). The area’s ethnic minority rates are 155% higher than the city average.
In order to meet the challenges of the area, Rosemount works with children and families, learners and parents providing a range of services and programmes including childcare, teaching (literacy & numeracy, English for Speakers of Other Languages and lots more), mental health, employability training, support programmes for young parents as well as families overcoming addictions.
These days it is getting more and more difficult to secure funding for these absolutely essential services and programmes.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and please share our cause so we can continue our work!
