Scottish Youth Parliament
Wednesday 12th August 2020The Boys’ Brigade’s two MSYPs continue to work hard to represent the views of our members at the Scottish Youth Parliament.
Christopher Winters MSYP has been working with a fellow MSYP on a joint motion; that motion recently passed at an SYP sitting with an incredibly uncommon 100% vote in favour. Christopher’s motion called on SYP to support the use of disability assistance initiatives, such as the Thistle Assistance Card scheme and the Sunflower Lanyard Scheme, and called for their implementation across the transport sector and beyond.
Meanwhile, Alastair Thomson MSYP has joined the Young Scot Health Panel, which has been focusing on Coronavirus, mental health and body image. We’re incredibly thankful for the work they’ve done so far and also for the fantastic manner in which they continue to represent The Boys’ Brigade.
