WHAT IF (Male) Support Service

Quarriers WHAT IF (Male) Support Service offers a unique model of support to young males aged 18-25 years with complex needs, history of trauma and/or abuse who have been unable to sustain previous accommodation placements.

Young people receive housing support (i.e. independent living skills) and therapeutic support (i.e. emotional support, access to counselling, building social networks and strengths etc). All support offered promotes the empowerment of young people that we support – negotiation with young people is continually employed.

Service is based in the south side of Glasgow and comprises a core building which consists of project base/office and five flats for young people. The service also has an additional flat in the local community. We have a mixed gender staff team, are staffed 24/7 and also provide response on call cover.

Access/referrals to the service are made through Glasgow City Council’s Resource Priorities Group within Social Work Services.
