The PALS project

Works with children and young people with disabilities aged 8-15

Contact: Carol Cooper PALS Project - circles@plus-stirling.org.uk

The PALS Project facilitates school based peer support groups including circles of support for children with additional support needs. A circle usually consists of 6-8 volunteers from the child's class who agree to meet weekly with the child and an adult facilitator, to work together to increase the child's social opportunities and choices. The project also contained a research element and children in targeted schools were consulted and given the opportunity to suggest new ideas for peer supports.

The PALS Project is funded by BBC Children in Need until November 2009.
