Kickstart Scheme - Courtney
The School Bank West Lothian were delighted to have the opportunity to employ a young person through the Kickstart scheme last summer.
We employed Courtney to support us with our flagship fundraising campaign "Sponsor a Child" which was a big success - we couldn't have done it without her contribution!
We managed to secure additional funding to allow Courtney to stay with us part-time and she has then gone on to help us with our Social Campaigns on Facebook and Instagram, and more latterly helping to support students volunteering on placement with us.
Courtney is a great asset to us and I know she has learned a lot from the experience.

The Kickstart Scheme allowed me to learn so much about the third sector in my area in a short space of time and has given me the skills that I will definately use in any futire career ventures I go on!
