© Young Scot 2007 Young Scot – What we do… Young Scot is the national youth information and citizenship charity. We provide young people, aged , with a mixture of information, ideas and incentives to help them become confident, informed and active citizens. We do this in a variety of formats, including books, magazines, online, phone, etc, so young people can access information in a way they are comfortable with. It is our hope that the information we provide will enable them to: –Make informed decisions and choices –Turn their ideas into action –Take advantage of the opportunities available to them in Scotland and the rest of Europe –Have the confidence and knowledge to take their place as active citizens in their communities- locally, nationally and globally.
