Midlothian House Project year 5

Midlothian House Project year 5

Posted 17th February 2025

With Midlothian House Project in it's 5th Cohort, you would think the team would get any surprises, wrong. This group of young people are so focused on their end goal that they are smashing through their HPP journals and enjoying every minute of it. 

The previous 4 cohorts are also smashing it with members of the community managing their properties and blending right in to the community in which they have moved into. Some are sustaining their employment or education even with the transition into their own house. Some are working on a deeper level of themselves to prevent any past experiences impact on their futures. And Midlothian House Project is always getting approached to be asked young people's opinions on local / societal topics which is always good for them to have their voices heard. 

All round MHP is doing amazing, which this space for new experiences and adventures being shared.
