The Team Manager is strategic lead for the House Project in Fife and is responsible for the strategic direction of the project.
Hello - I'm Chris and I manage the House Project Team alongside our Residential and Housing Support Services in Fife.
Whilst I've only come on board with the House Project in 2024, I've had lots of experience working with the team whilst I was previously a social worker. I've referred a number of young people to the House Project and I'm so proud to see those young people thriving in their own homes as young adults. I believe in the power of relationships - I see time and time again how young people on the project benefit from the strength of support and connection they enjoy with our project facilitators.
Outside of my work with the House Project, I'm a keen photographer and I love getting outdoors and snapping shots of the beautiful country we live in!
