Award-winning Progress for Parents expands to Forres and Lossiemouth

An award-winning project supporting parents to build confidence and skills is expanding to new communities across Moray.

Progress for Parents, delivered by Moray Pathways in partnership with Moray Council’s Employability Team and Community Learning and Development (Adult & Family Learning), has launched groups in Forres and Lossiemouth. 

It comes just months after the original group, which runs weekly sessions in Buckie, was recognised with a prestigious Scotland’s Learning Partnership Award. 

Since launching in February 2024, Progress for Parents has supported parents to overcome personal challenges, reduce social isolation and take positive steps towards volunteering, further learning and employment. 

Participants have gone on to explore paid work placements, plan careers in childcare and, in some cases, start their own businesses.
