<img width="200" src="/images/uploads/directory/_thumbnail/glachbeg-beg.jpeg">

<p><h3>What do we offer at Stages 1 + 2?</h3>

<p>We will work with you to design a&nbsp;programme&nbsp;to meet your needs, using the context of the 14 acre croft and its resources - which includes, livestock, growing areas, woodland, kitchen and classroom. Most work is hands-on&nbsp;and practical, though a teacher is available for more formal learning.&nbsp; Placements will take place for 6 sessions, with extensions by agreement. You are most likely to work with someone on a one to one basis and much of your time will be spent outdoors.</p>

<h3>Who can apply?</h3>

<p>You may be referred as a part of an Activity Agreement, or may be referred through Health and Social&nbsp;Care Services. You may also be referred through the Employability Service or use your Self-Directed Support package to fund your place if you are eligible. &nbsp; You will complete an application form and then make a pre-placement visit to Glachbeg.&nbsp; Glachbeg Croft provides placements throughout the education service and to young adults.&nbsp; Glachbeg is available to anyone in Highland who is able to&nbsp;travel to&nbsp;the&nbsp;North Kessock area.</p>

<h3>What can you achieve?</h3>

<p>You will gain practical on-the-job experience of working on a small croft and working with others.&nbsp;&nbsp;You may&nbsp;also&nbsp;underake&nbsp;<a href="http://www.asdan.org.uk/courses" target="_blank">ASDAN</a> units if this is appropriate to your needs.</p>
