Big plans for 2024

Posted 9th January 2024

With every new year there are new goals, resolutions and person expectation set individually and collectively. Midlothian House Project (MHP), will probably do all of the above. 

Since Gavin has joined MHP, we have achieved so much as a team already but 2024 is our year. Midlothian House Project now has a drop in on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

MHP is looking for 2 new Care Leavers National Movement reps (see here for more information, CLNM | The National House Project (thehouseproject.org) from Midlothian to participate in a minimum of 1 years events to ensure Midlothian young people are being considered, heard and aware of what is happening on a national leave. 

At the end of January, the MHP cohort 4 group session will start with an exciting event that will invite all of the young people to come together and celebrate a new year, new start.
