Enable Glasgow Fortune Works

Enable Glasgow Fortune Works ENABLE Glasgow aims to empower people with learning disability to get the most from life.

Fortune Works encourages people to become involved in the local community through various projects and achieves a balance between group activities and individual timetables. We offer 125 full time placements to adults with learning disability from all over the City. The project is also a source of vital social support for those who take part. We liaise closely with families, statutory sector professionals, and agencies which provide community support in order to make this as effective as possible. Fortune Works can receive referrals from any source, but any admissions require to be approved by the relevant statutory authority (usually the Social Work Department). We are also very proud to be part of the Drumchapel community, and of the fact that our service users are playing a direct part in its regeneration.

It’s been amazing to watch the confidence, camaraderie, and sheer joy grow with every match. Huge congratulations to all the players—you’ve done yourselves proud and brought so much energy to the pitch. 👏👏👏

Here’s to more goals, more laughs, and more unforgettable moments. Well done, ladies! 💙
