The Gateland working today to make a difference for tomorrow  

We work in partnership with both the private sector and the local authorities where we all share a common interest in developing and supporting a particular group of young people we offer an alternative way of life through our pathway programme (Changing Directions).

Here you'll get an insight into the work we are currently undertaking and how we see the next phase operating where we can encouraging more young people and creating greater opportunities for staff and volunteers.   

Our client group is predominantly young males between the age of sixteen to twenty-two who have been before the courts and are deemed to be at risk, in need of a particular support package or a place of safety.

Working with the three big R's which are the fundamental building blocks at the heart of the gateland where the foundations have been laid for : re-training, rehabilitating & re-educating.

Whilst it is recognise that each local authority will provide the necessary care for It's service users. Inevitably there will always be individual cases / areas of training and support that are uneconomical for the authority to deliver.

Here at the gateland we can provide some of those services through our pathway programme changing directions.
