Transcript of Young Leaders Network
What is Young Leaders Network?
•A network for Seniors & Young Leaders within the BB
•Fun, adventure, fellowship and development
•Like minded individuals of a similar age
•Began nationally, but now more localised
From National to Battalion…
Began through BB Scotland to address falling numbers of Seniors
A number of new events are now a major part of the calendar
Due to success, a number of Battalions have started a local YLN
- Strathkelvin
- Glasgow
- Stirling
How to organise & run a YLN…
Not a one size fits all!! However, key points are common throughout:
•Ask don’t assume
•Outsource – get advice
•The availability of funding…
“a rainy-day fund”
•Communication
•Regular calendar & something to look forward to
What activities can YLN do?
The young people must be empowered in the decision making.
Should reflect a range of interests:
•Get-together with food
•Comedy gigs
•Adventurous activities
•Challenge Plus Events
•International Development
•Limited only by imagination…
