Mark Scott Leadership for Life Award

Outward Bound Trust's Story

Watch this video produced by Education Scotland, which shares how a group of young people taking part in The Mark Scott Award with The Outward Bound Trust developed a garden in the grounds of a care home in Barrhead.

"I think the environment should be the most important thing to us, as even though this is just a small thing, if everyone does something like this I think it would really push us towards a better world."
