We know that reaching out for support can feel difficult. People often come to us when they feel overwhelmed, isolated, unheard or unsure where to turn next.
We do not believe that you should have to wait until crisis point before support is available. Our work is built around listening first, understanding what matters most, and offering support that feels safe, respectful and manageable.
Whether through community counselling, family support or inclusive group activities for children, we create welcoming spaces where people feel accepted, connected and supported.
Accessible
Support should be easy to reach when people need it, without unnecessary barriers.
Person-centred
We listen to each person's experiences, needs and strengths.
Family-centred
We recognise that families often need practical, emotional and community-based support.
Child-centred
We create safe, understanding spaces where children can feel accepted and supported.
In 2025, Rainbow Rogues provided
more than 5,900 hours of direct support
To children, young people, adults and families across Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire.
Behind every number is a person or family who reached out and found support when they needed it most.
Words from the people we support
Sometimes the clearest way to understand our impact is through the words of the people and families we support.
