A brilliant transformation by the Community Payback teams @fcjusticesw! #CommunityFirstFriday
8 Mar 2024
Our Community Payback Teams have worked really hard on this property - transforming it for a mum and her children to move into. Two teams worked on the property for two weeks, and it is now ready for the family to move into. What a difference - well done everyone! π #community

Today is a special #CommunityFirstFriday because it also falls on #InternationalWomensDay π
We're celebrating all of the women in communities across Scotland who are making a difference in people's lives.
We'd love to hear about the women you're proud to know, on #IWD2024! π«
ALT A woman wearing a lanyard is presenting to group of seated men. There is a colourful mural of the Scottish map on the wall behind.
ALT A community kitchen preparing for service. There is a woman holding plates and a man stirring a pot.
ALT A group of women in a forest, they are obviously shouting and some are holding their arms in the air. They are releasing energy together.
ALT A fire station. There is a woman instructing a man on how to do CPR on a dummy. There is a fire truck and a group of firefighters stood behind them.
