🌟 A year of SUPER-sized impact 🌟 Following the release of our 23/24 Annual Report, we are excited to share this video showcasing the brilliant work our young people have led! 🎉 Over the last year, we’ve super-sized our impact and saw young people smash out so much work! Engagement doesn’t get much more meaningful than giving your time for free to a good cause, and 41 young people last year supported us with 2410 Volunteer Hours – an equivalent of over 60 weeks of full-time work! And on the business side of things, young people led 121 van and catering events across the year. It goes to show, do not underestimate young people! 🙌 Check out the full 23/24 Annual Report through the link below: https://lnkd.in/ebqw3xA6

STV Children’s Appeal’s annual report is out and we’re thrilled to have such a large part in it. We really appreciate all the support they have given us last year. The money raised by our Kiltwalkers, along with being the official Kiltwalk partner for the STV Children’s Appeal, has gone a huge way in supporting our Scran Vans outreach, proving up to 10,000 free meals to young people along with providing work experience for 20 of our Scransitioners. Check out the report below:

Congratulations to all the incredible young people who participated in our programmes this year! 🎉 Last night marked their Graduation and AGM, and we couldn't be prouder of their achievements. A special shoutout to those who bravely shared their stories on stage—it takes a lot of courage. Well done to you all, it was a truly inspirational evening. We can't wait to see what you accomplish next! ✨
