I’m thrilled that our motion at #SYP81 has passed and become policy of @OfficialSYP. With 80% of MSYPs voting in favour, it’s clear there is a demand for outdoor residential experiences to be available and accessible to every young person in Scotland.

Beau’s experience with SYP is top class. Through her work as a local MSYP in Edinburgh and now Glasgow, all the way to representing Scotland at the UN in Geneva. So get #OnBoardWithBeau to make sure our trustee board is the best it can be!

Super excited that we’ve been able to expand this badge to Explorers now! It’s crucial that all young people understand their rights and this is another step in the right direction.
