Our Story

To involve local people and organisations in taking positive action on poverty, discrimination and other life stresses with a focus on education, health, welfare and social inclusion for refugee, minority ethnic and migrant communities.

Fresh Start NL aims to extend integration support to All new people who are coming to live and work in North Lanarkshire. One stop shop for advice, support and signposting to relevant agencies which will help new people become settled in North Lanarkshire.
