About Us

Aim 121 is designed to help children, young people and families who perhaps struggle to feel apart of the wider community, gain a sense of belonging or have been disadvantaged by adverse family situations or opportunities.

Our aim is to provide quality services.

At the community level we deliver conferences, seminars , retreats, safeguarding training days and retreats for our participants and volunteers.
