South Lanarkshire
Support that meets young people where they are.
The GIVIT works alongside young people affected by alcohol and drugs — no waiting rooms, no judgement, no time limits. Two services, one team.
Our two services
Not sure which one fits? Submit a referral anyway — our team will match the young person to the right service.
What happens after a referral
We check eligibility
A referral is not automatically accepted. Our team reviews it against the service criteria, usually within three working days.
We assess risk together
If the referral is suitable, a worker completes a risk assessment with the young person and it is recorded on their case file.
You always hear back
If we cannot accept a referral, we tell the referrer why and, wherever possible, suggest a more suitable service.
Confidential by default
We only share information outside the team where there is a risk of significant harm, and we tell the young person when we do.
Voluntary and young-person led
Young people choose to work with us. Support moves at their pace, in places they feel comfortable.
