Asda Foundation Funding, Transition Extreme Outreach Programme
The motion
That the Parliament congratulates the Aberdeen-based social enterprise, Transition Extreme, on being awarded £39,521 in project funding from the Asda Foundation; understands that Transition Extreme uses sports activities to engage 13 to 24-year-olds in order to help direct them to educational support; believes that this diversionary facility also supports initiatives to reduce crime, substance abuse and antisocial behaviour; understands that this funding will go toward extending its outreach programme to more hard-to-reach areas in Aberdeen and help pay for a new minibus and training for the youth workers involved, and wishes Transition Extreme the very best in taking this forward.
