Volunteers’ Week took place recently recognising the efforts of all the wonderful people across the UK who support a range of organisations and services, including our schools and children’s activities.

We thought you may like to read about a particularly lovely example of how young people themselves are engaging in volunteering, in Aberdeenshire. Read the Community Learning and Development in Aberdeenshire blog on Young People Volunteer – New Peer Educators and find out about a mental health and wellbeing programme which will see young people leading early intervention sessions in their local areas.

Sue Briggs is our CLD lead across the Northern Alliance: sue.briggs@aberdeenshire.gov.uk
