One Young World Ambassador, @JohnLoughton BEM, ran his first campaign aged 11 in North Edinburgh. Today, as CEO of Young Scot and founder of @ScranAcademy, he is at The Shard making the case for what a National Youth Strategy must deliver for young people across all four nations, not just on paper, but in practice. 🧑⚖️
"We need to stop telling young people to fit the systems, and start telling the systems to better fit young people." — John Loughton BEM, CEO, Young Scot.
