Adapting to new challenges and the needs of community-based youth work
Without [the Youth Scotland development worker] and the team's support NCDT would never been able to deliver Youth Work and activity to the scale and standard that we do. From training, to hands on support, funding and much more, Youth Scotland are never more than a phone call away for anything we need!

There have undoubtedly been severe challenges in the youth work sector – facing multiple and compounded crises – but community-based youth work has reacted quickly and determinedly, incorporating vital learning from the pandemic to improve how and where young people can reach us and reminding us of the sometimes intangible benefits of in-person contact and spaces.
