Who we are

Breaking Cycles. Building Futures.
Practical support for people facing homelessness, addiction, mental health challenges, and the barriers that keep them stuck.

@yourside is a volunteer-led project built on community, compassion, and the belief that everyone deserves support without judgement. Our work is currently delivered entirely by volunteers who give their time, skills, and experience to support people facing homelessness, addiction, mental health challenges, and involvement in the justice system.

What we do

We believe change happens when people feel heard, supported, and valued. Our work focuses on practical help, trusted relationships, and creating opportunities for people to move forward.

Drop in

Our twice-weekly drop-in creates a safe & welcoming space where participants can access advice, information, practical support, and connection. Whether someone needs help navigating services, a conversation over a coffee, or simply a place to feel heard, the door is always open.

Tuesday and Saturday 11am - 1pm 

Dundee Congregational Church Hall  

5 Nicol St, Dundee, DD1 1LU (Just off Ward Rd)

 

Responsive1-1 Support

Our 1-1 support is built differently. There are no waiting lists, no assigned worker, and no strict 9–5 approach. We work collaboratively as a team to build trusted relationships with participants, allowing us to respond quickly, flexibly, and in ways that genuinely meet people where they are.

Group Activities

Our group work is shaped by the people who attend. Activities are developed through participant requests and interests, helping build confidence, routine, creativity, and connection. From walking groups and cooking sessions to drawing and creative activities, our groups create opportunities for people to come together, learn new skills, and support one another.
