John Smith Centre and RBS Youth Leadership Programme
The motion
That the Parliament welcomes the launch of a new partnership between the John Smith Centre for Public Service and Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS), which will see 300 young people aged 17 to 27, from all walks of life and from across Scotland, taking part in a 12-month leadership programme, developing their skills and exploring issues such as climate change, financial capability, entrepreneurialism and digital innovation, as well as helping to promote the importance of respectful, civilised disagreement; notes that the partnership is part of RBS’s 300 Fund, which will invest £1 million each year for the next seven years into communities across Scotland to mark the bank’s 300th anniversary in 2027, with a particular focus on climate change, financial capability and enterprise, and encourages individuals from communities across Scotland to get involved in the programme when it is launched later in 2020.
