Ceangail’s Skills Connect Programmes Receive Support from the National Lottery Community Fund

Ceangail CIC, a Stirling-based social enterprise, has been awarded funding by The National Lottery Community Fund, made possible by National Lottery players, to deliver two of its Skills Connect programmes for up to 40 young people in the Stirling and the Forth Valley area.

Kate Still, National Lottery Community Fund, Scotland Chair said, “National Lottery funding can make amazing things happen in local communities across the country. This project delivered by Ceangail CIC is a great example of community activity in action, showing just what can be achieved when people come together for a common cause or to help others. National Lottery players can be proud to know that the money they raise is helping to support this vital work which is making a real difference to so many.”

Matt McGrandles, Ceangail’s Executive Director, commented, “This award from the National Lottery Community Fund was very welcome news indeed. We will now be able to get back to work on providing creative vocational training opportunities for young people, re-connecting with our employability network and delivering our social aims of being part of a young person’s journey towards employment.”

Ceangail focuses on projects surrounding the Tourism sector, aiming to inspire young people to consider a job in that direction, such as event delivery, becoming a tour guide, or even in media and digital. It is looking forward to business as usual as it emerges from the pandemic crisis, with plans to reach as many as 2,500 young people every year.

Those who are interested in taking part in Ceangail’s vocational training programmes can contact them at office@ceangail.org or visit the website www.ceangail.org.
