Congratulations to the Fife Throughcare Team who won this year’s Apex Scotland Betty Crawford Memorial Award. The team work alongside colleagues from Social Work to provide a holistic and joined up service to young care leavers in Fife. These young people are often difficult to engage and Cathie Gibson and Ian Kirk, although very different, have employed various effective methods to motivate and train young people to achieve a positive future. There is little doubt the success of the service is down to the perseverance and dedication of Cathie and Ian who refused to give up on these young people.Ian Kirk received the award on behalf him and Cathie.
