This collaborative project will look to support women working within lap-dancing bars as women involved in the sex industry are in need of considerable support. This outreach work aims to empower women and support them to access services such as health, welfare, employability and criminal justice services, thereby improving their health and social care outcomes.

Moving On
This project is an evaluation of a Community Psychiatric Nurse-led, public and social partnering practice-based study, aimed at helping people make the transition from homelessness care services to local community networks.
Dementia Pathways
This project aims to develop and implement an integrated health and social care pathway to provide support for older adults (over 65 years) living with dementia and their carers in the community co-ordinated by a named community nurse. This nurse will ensure equitable access to support, information and care from diagnosis throughout all stages of the illness to end of life.
Enabling Recovery
This project offers a safe environment for adults with learning disabilities and mental health conditions can be enabled to better understand, manage and maintain their own wellbeing. The aim will be for each individual to identify what they are like when they are well, and when they are unwell, promoting an individual definition of recovery.
Sunday Choices
This project seeks to provide outreach workers from SACRO (Scottish Association for the Care and Resettlement of Offenders) Edinburgh to engage with people who are in Police Custody. The aim will be to improve the health and wellbeing of those who have spent a weekend in custody who are in great need of support, and who would otherwise be hard to reach.
Towards a Mentally Flourishing School
The collaborative project seeks to establish an innovative whole-school approach to enable social, emotional and psychological wellbeing throughout the school in order to promote positive behaviours, engagement in education and optimise attainment.
