We're really enjoying working with Children's Hearings Scotland and Braw Talent CIC to create an animation about language in the Children's Hearings System. Our board members had a fun afternoon recording voice-overs at a recording studio in Glasgow. Animation coming soon - watch this space! 🎥

Sometimes participation work can be solely driven by the needs and interests of adults and organisations. Wonderful things can happen when the direction comes from young people and harnesses their passions, skills and own learning! 👏👂🤩

A massive thank you to Our Hearings, Our Voice for joining us today to help shape the future of our Hearing room improvement programme. Lots of energy and brilliant ideas!
