On the Choreography category our judges are looking for high quality performances and creativity that can blow the audience away. Each video can be up

We leave you here the words from Ana talking about her volunteering experience in Scotland. She was working with Achieve More Scotland participating in a youth led project from the 29th of June to the 20th of July of 2019. This project has been funded by the Erasmus+ programme. “An incredible and unbelievable experience, thanks Scotland” I describe myself as… A solidary person, empathetic and happy that takes care of her environment and her loved ones. I can’t live without… Art, animals, nature and cactus. Why did I decide to have

Community Pharmacy services Did you know that your local pharmacy does more than just making up prescriptions? They also deliver NHS services that can be easier to use than making an appointment to see someone in your surgery – whether you have symptoms you would like checked out or need support with long-term medication. Full details of each service can be found by following the links below to the NHS Inform website, and we have included a short description of the main services that are available from every

At the time I was also starting my 5th year at Secondary school and wasn’t 10% sure what I wanted to do as a career.
