This year at AbJam

On behalf of our AbJam Young Planners, we are so excited to announce that planning for this years AbJam residential is underway. The event is open to all young people aged 12-25 who are supported by Aberlour services. This year will make 10 years of AbJam, as well as Aberlour turning 150 years old! Here's everything that you need to know so far…

Where? AbJam25 will take place at Lockerbie Manor in Lockerbie, Dumfries & Galloway. The house is set in beautiful countryside and offers us lots of opportunities to have some adventures out in nature. The site is easily accessible via road, or you could catch the train to Lockerbie.

When? Monday 4th - Wednesday 6th August 2025
The timing of AbJam is a little different this year based on our young people telling us that it was often a rush to travel after school, and hard to get up for school, college and work the day after! We hope that moving it from a weekend into the summer holidays will help with this  You can choose to come for the whole event, or just come along for part of it – whatever suits you best!

What's happening at AbJam25? Our young planners are currently working hard to create a theme and start to plan an itinerary for the weekend. We know already that it's going to be packed with outdoor activities, the chance to experience new things you've never tried before and to meet some new friends. If you'd like to get involved with planning this, please email rhianne.ewen@aberlour.org.uk   Keep checking back here for more information
