A New Chapter

In October 2024 we paused the running of our project. This was following the departure of our lead coach and project coordinator Nia, who returned to university following a very successful running of the project for a year.

This pause has given us time to reset our goals and strategy going forward to ensure that we can continue to run an impactful project focusing on our local young people, our community and our partners. We are now getting ready for relaunch, and in the process are recruiting for the following roles:

• Project coordinator/lead coach

• Sessional coaches

• Volunteers including coaches

• Board Members

The links to the relevant applications are listed below.

Even outwith formal recruitment openings, we'd love to hear from you if you feel you have skills, experience or just some good old gusto that might contribute to our project. We are always on the look out for enthusiastic people who wish to contribute to improving the lives of local young people in Glasgow.

• Project coordinator/lead coach: applications open until 28/2/25: https://scottish-rowing.org.uk/about-scottish-rowing/vacancies/1288-firhill-youth-project-and-community-sports-hub-scio-project-coordinator-lead-coach-2

New Website

After 5 successful years of our project, we've decided that the time has come to launch our own website. So far, we've relied on our social media platforms and word of mouth of our local community to allow others to find us. Whilst this has been successful to date, we now want to improve our visibility to potentially have greater impact on the young people of our community.

We are always on the look out for more young people who might like to engage with our project, and similarly any new volunteers are always greatly valued. Hopefully this website will be an improved way for local people to learn about our service and potentially get involved!

If you have feedback or queries about our website, or if any comments in general about FYPCSH, please do not hesitate to get in touch with us - your opinion is appreciated!
