Young Scot is a charity in Scotland promoting citizenship education to young people aged 12–26 years. The organisation uses a variety of media including books, magazines, online and telephone contact and often works in conjunction with local councils and schools.
The organisation also issues the Young Scot National Entitlement Card, which provides cardholders with discounts for goods and services across certain European countries and is a PASS-accredited proof of age card.
Young Scot is part of the Euro 26 group.
Famous quotes containing the word young:
“A young person is a person with nothing to learn
One who already knows that ice does not chill and fire does not burn . . .
It knows it can spend six hours in the sun on its first
day at the beach without ending up a skinless beet,
And it knows it can walk barefoot through the barn
without running a nail in its feet. . . .
Meanwhile psychologists grow rich
Writing that the young are ones’ should not
undermine the self-confidence of which.”
—Ogden Nash (1902–1971)
