TIBAL is an acronym for Together In Benarty and Lochgelly. 

We are a Scottish Charity established in 2003. Our Management Committee is drawn from local people who care about what happens in and to Lochgelly and Benarty and its local environs. 

TIBAL aims to create extra choices and chances for people in Lochgelly and Benarty. We listen to the local community and work in partnership with like minded organisations to respond to needs in a way which makes a difference to people’s lives.  We are based in the Crosshill Business Centre in Unit 15. Our main focus at the moment is:-

The Edge Young Person’s Project

A project for young people aged 8 to 18. The aim of this project is to make things happen for young people in this area.  This is done through expanding horizons, realising potential and increasing the self confidence of young people.  Please visit our website at link for more details of this exciting project.The

Elderly Befriending Project.

This project was developed by TIBAL as a way of supporting our elderly and building
a more cohesive community.   Quote from an elderly person:-

“Please don’t treat me like I’m old or soon I’ll act the part.  You’re ageing just as fast as I am but I got a big head start” 

Please visit our website at link for more details of this exciting project.
