Outward Bound in Scotland
The challenges for young people in Scotland are stacking up...
One in four live in poverty. Brexit will deprive our youth sector of £1M in funding. The education attainment gap was growing even before COVID, and future employment opportunities are increasingly uncertain.
YOU CAN HELP them TO DEFY THEIR LIMITATIONS
Without direct intervention and support, our young people will not be able to thrive and live successful lives. Will you help them to develop the attitudes, skills and behaviours they need to make a positive and lasting change?
