We're kicking off our #PowerOfYouth Festival sessions with our Join the Movement webinar ✊

Some of Scotland's #IWill Ambassadors @RachVolunteers, @MhairiMcCann_, @CianGullen & @JoelMeekison will be taking us through the plan for the next 5 years of #IWill in Scotland!
@CianGullen is kicking us off with a bit of a background to the #IWill campaign & what it means to be an #IWill ambassador 🙌

#PowerOfYouth
Why is it important now more than ever to support youth volunteering & social action?

Co-Chair of the Scottish #IWill advisory group @timfrew is sharing his thoughts.

#PowerOfYouth #IWillWeek
Some of the reasons volunteering & youth social action is more important now that ever:

🧠 Mental Health & Wellbeing
💼 Pathways to Employability
💬 Functioning Democracy
🗣️ Political Literacy

#PowerOfYouth #IWillWeek
"Is there political will in Scotland to see a complete culture shift from volunteering as a nice to do, to volunteering as a need to do?"

What a great final question from @timfrew on the future of #IWill, volunteering & youth social action in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🙌

#PowerOfYouth
We believe that we can create a culture in Scotland where all young people can take action & volunteer!

#IWill ambassador @JoelMeekison is taking us through our new five year strategic plan which was shaped by young people! Watch this space for the launch later 👀
