So proud of members past and present of AYM. Without their dedication this award would not be possible.
The #YLSAwards Team of the Year winner is… @aym_aberdeen! AYM has created a culture where young people don’t just give opinions - they influence funding, policy and real decisions.

Launched AYM Co‑Lab approach yesterday at the Learn North Conference Yesterday. Great to share how young people are co‑designing real change — not just being consulted, but leading the process. Their insight, energy and honesty make the work stronger. #voiceschangefutures
