BEMAS ‘Transitions’
Action Group is starting a new service for young people from black and ethnic minority communities, who have a learning disability or other support needs in Edinburgh and West Lothian.
The aim is to work with young people (over 16s) from black and minority ethnic background who have learning disabilities or other support needs, as they go through ‘transitions’ associated with leaving school and college, and growing up. They can advise young people and their families on many issues including; benefit entitlements and claiming, housing, education and training, work, respite and leisure opportunities. Through a combination of group and individual work, with young people, their carers and families, they aim to help young people make plans for their future and support them in making it happen.
