On the 13th of June two of our staff, Daryl and Lynnie, were invited to attend the Youth and Philanthropy Initiative (YPI) national event in Perth by the winning team for 2023 from St Ninians High School. YPI is a wonderful programme which allows secondary school students to compete against their peers to secure funds for their chosen charity, and this year the winning charity for St Ninians was GRACE. They travelled to the Perth Concert Hall where our team had been asked to perform in front of a packed audience from all over Scotland.
The presentation included a fantastic poem which had been written by one of the team about GRACE. Our staff had a wonderful day celebrating our team’s win. We would like to thank the staff and students of St Ninians High School and the Wood Foundation who run the YPI across Scotland and we look forward to further partnerships in the future.
