Scotland Children & Young People’s Council Partnership New Partnership
We are very excited to announce that our Scotland Children and Young people’s Council (SCYPC) are going to be working with Children’s Parliament (see http://www.childrensparliament.org.uk/) for the next year! Over the 3 sessions they will explore what it means to have their say and learn how to ensure their voice is heard in a positive way. By the end of the year we hope the young people will feel confident about raising issues about cleft at all levels.
