Big News from Stepping Stones!

We’ve got some exciting updates! Thanks to funding from The National Lottery, we’ve hired three new support workers to help grow our neurodiversity services. This means you won’t have to wait as long to get help with individual support and guided self-help.

We’ve also secured funding from West Dunbartonshire Health and Social Care Partnership, so we can keep running our services at the same level for the next few years.

On top of that, with help from the West Dunbartonshire Community Mental Health and Wellbeing Fund, we’ve started a new Women’s Support Group in Dumbarton, while keeping our Clydebank group going strong.

We’re really happy about these changes and will keep working hard to support our community!
