The TCV qualification will help me get a job.

I am writing to thank you for such an insightful afternoon in to the work that you are providing to some of Edinburgh’s most vulnerable young people. It was good to hear first hand from the young people themselves how they are benefiting from taking part in the woodland experience programme.

It was also good to hear from you about the work you have planned for the future.

I would offer my support to any funding application that you make to the Pentland /South West Neighbourhood Partnership.

Adam has gained more independence and confidence. He has loved coming here and gaining survival knowledge. He has learnt his strength is more than he thought and that he can achieve if he tries and doesn’t give up. He has loved meeting new people and being part of a fantastic group. Thanks to Youth Vision for all their help and support and for helping Adam to see he has got great potential.

We have worked with Youth Vision in the past and our young people have really valued the opportunity the bespoke timetable has offered them. The regular contact and dove-tailing with the traditional timetable has made a real difference to how the young people view their outdoor learning experience.

As a school we are looking for partners who can offer sustained opportunities for young people as part of a supported curriculum and Youth vision has offered this effectively for our students.

It’s an amazing place and has a really calm feel about it. Sean and Jordon have both gained so much from their experience here. This has translated into a better performance in the classroom. Thank you!

It's fun and worth going to and gives you good skills for future life and its good because its not taught in a classroom.

The best thing about Youth Vision is you learn new skills and everyone has patience with you.

I get better at cooking and that makes me feel good. I am confident cooking at home for myself and other people.

Jordon has loved every minute here. It has helped build his confidence with others. He has been much keener to be out and about and having a bit more space has been great for me.
