Last weekend we travelled to Inverness with two young people from Orkney to meet, share ideas and participate with their peers from across the #NAllianceScot. Lots of discussions now to take this forward…..

[Youth Scotland @YouthScotland]

Last weekend, the #NorthernAllianceYouthAdvisoryGroup held their first residential. After three days of workshops, young people identified a key takeaway: 'We want better communication about what we want for our future.' Read more about the event here: https://t.co/br9j1Okyxs.
