HOW WE HELP

How we help

Hear from our support users and volunteers...

Over the last year Nourish has provided me with a safe haven. 
It's allowed me to have a safe place to speak about any issues I have had in my personal life. I've always felt supported and cared for. My son has also had the support from the Nourish team. At a time he felt a little lost and would never find an interest of his own Nourish was there. 

I have no words or the right amount of thanks and appreciation for Nourish haven given my son his place.
My oldest daughter has also had some amazing opportunities through Nourish. She volunteered at Nourish for her Duke of Edinburgh award at school. She was also given the opportunity to take photos for use in the Fife Free Press and with photography being her thing this was an amazing thing for her.
My youngest daughter has one of the most wonderful gifts from Nourish. She sees Nourish as her extended family and actually calls it her Nourish Family. She feels safe and loved every time she walks through the door. She now loves to try and help out every time she is there too, it's like she wants to give back and help make sure every child who comes to Nourish feel the same as her. She is so comfortable and at home there the first thing she does is take her shoes off.

I can't imagine where myself and my children would be without the support and love of Nourish. Thank you x

I could literally write for days the positive impact you have had on our lives, from my son actually talking you staff and acknowledging them, to how lockdown made his speech deteriorate and now it's back to how it was, how I've pushed myself to be braver and put myself out there. Just sooooo much love for you guys!
I honestly can't thank you enough for the support you gave us for 🎄gifts and the shopping voucher, not only did it ensure the kids had presents but also took a massive stress off myself. I know I've already expressed our thanks but still feel it isn't enough!

I like volunteering as they make me feel welcome and like part of the family. My life has changed completely for the better since becoming a member
I like that I don't have to hide my disability when I'm volunteering with nourish and everyone is very understanding. I feel welcome and free to be myself. It feels like family.

I enjoy giving back seeing the impact on someone even if it's just a chat about life . The support you get is amazing it's one big family that has changed my life.
The staff have made me very welcome, they are very helpful and help me with any problems, so I like to give something back back by volunteering.

It gets me out and about and I really enjoy it. I get to meet people and love. I do a lot more than what I expected and am really enjoying myself. I'm getting so much more out of it than expected.
I like everything about volunteering, I like to help and something back.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

Our Testimonials

Doing things as a family is hard. Having an adult son with disabilities - it’s hard to find a place to do things together where people are not judging the fact that a 26 year old man is super excited to see Santa, or kids activities. At Nourish we can do that, and no one minds. It’s a family orientated, inclusive place for all of our family to enjoy things together.

Nourish has provided me with a safe haven, and a safe place to speak about any issues I have had in my personal life. I've always felt supported and cared for. My son has also had the support from the Nourish team. At a time he felt a little lost and would never find an interest of his own Nourish was there. He is now a member of the Meeples club, which he loves. He has made like minded friends who he can interact and talk to.

Nourish has been a massive support to my family for the past few years. Providing support, food parcels, support at Xmas. Putting on relax kids sessions. My daughter has even had the experience of volunteering which massively improved her confidence and well being which I will be forever grateful.
