Fab Pad is a unique youth housing project, working with the most vulnerable young people in Scotland. The project focuses on an individual young person’s needs at a vital stage in their progression out of a chaotic lifestyle - when he or she starts a new tenancy.

We offer the young person the chance to work with an interior designer to get the ideas and learn the skills to turn this new flat or house into their home. Through reducing the risk of tenancy breakdown by making them feel more ownership over their flat, the young people are able to stabilise their own life, and look to what they are going to do next - work, train or go to college.

The end result is a home they have created themselves and Impact Arts believes this one significant factor may mean the difference between maintaining and abandoning a tenancy. 

The Fab Pad project has workshops across Scotland, including, Dennistoun, Govan, Drumchapel, Possilpark, Pollok and the Gorbals.  There are also workshops in North Ayrshire, East Dunbartonshire, West Dunbartonshire and Stirling.
