COVEY stands for COmmunity Volunteers Enabling Youth.
We have a long history in recruiting, training and supporting volunteer befrienders and the young people they work with.
COVEY volunteers provide befriending outings on a regular basis to young people in South Lanarkshire.

"Befriending provides a supportive reliable relationship to someone who would otherwise be socially excluded" (Befriending Network Scotland)
COVEY values are... respect, openness, commitment, innovation and passion where everyone; befrienders, board, volunteers, other agencies, young people and staff contribute to effective team work. |
