Yesterday Heather spoke to nearly 400 pupils at Clyde Valley High School.
She is the guest speaker at the DYW Lanarkshire & East Dunbartonshire Youth Volunteer Fairs throughout the area.
Hopefully inspiring kids of her age.
Watch this space for more events.
Throw Back Thursday.
It's been a while.
Are you aware of an MP's "roving surgery"?
We weren't until H was invited by @katrinamurray71 to join her team and ensure people who are housebound or unable to attend a surgery are still able to raise issues or concerns.
➡️ Tue evening - guest speaker for VANL in @ncanarkshire
➡️ Wed - guest speaker at a pilot scheme for @nlcpeople. This was so successful that the plan is to roll it out to every high school
➡️ Thurs evening - a networking event at @ShowcaseCinemas. Thanks to Ciaran & Andrew

Another milestone, officially a teenager.
This little lady turned 13 today.
Mum and Dad are so proud of everything you've achieved, half your life volunteering, benefiting others.
So excited to see what comes next.
As part of her role as The @scotgov Saltire Award Ambassador Heather had to undertake training. This included Online Safety, delighted to say she received 100% marks.
Heather also spent a considerable amount of time designing the Ambassador hoodie. Can't wait to wear it.
It's finally official.
Heather is the first VANL Saltire Award Ambassador.
She was the youngest person ever to achieve the Saltire Summit Award last year.
Really looking forward to promoting the benefits of volunteering.

Happy New Year from Team Bryson.
As a family we've been very lucky to have had a brilliant 2024.
Difficult to find a photo of the 3 of us together.
Enjoyed looking through our photographic memories. Forgot to post many of them, including H's VIP invite to @NASAKennedy
Family night out at Maw Goose Panto at @WebstersTheatre
The whole cast, crew and production of this was fabulous.
This took H back, was one of the first stages she performed on, age 3.
That's Heather the Christmas Elf finished volunteering for 2024.
We want to say a massive thank you for everyone's support and kindness throughout this year.
Merry Christmas 🎄🧑🎄🎄
A "wee trouper", the show must go on at the Fort Theatre Bishopbriggs, even with a fractured finger.
H really is a brave wee soul. Doesn't like to disappoint anyone.

THROW BACK THURSDAY
Yesterday H was asked to film content for VANL. They're creating a video promoting volunteering to young people as part of their work
with @DYWScot. This will be used to promote volunteering as a
route to gain skills and experience.
