About
West Lothian Council awarded a contract to Thera (Scotland) for the Supporting People with Learning Disability - Social Opportunities and Natural Networks project.
The contract, valued at £175,000, aims to develop an innovative, user-led project supported by trained volunteers to help people with a learning disability make friends and build natural networks in communities.
