Over 2,000 young people from across Scotland gathered yesterday at the SEC Armadillo to receive the Caritas Award, recognising their commitment to faith in action through service in their schools, parishes and local communities.

The Caritas Award encourages young people to live out the Gospel in practical ways, supporting others, growing in faith and becoming witnesses of hope within the world around them.

Yesterday’s celebration was a powerful reminder of the goodness, compassion and faith of young people across Scotland and of the positive impact they are making in the Church and society today.

Congratulations to every young person who received the award. Your witness, kindness and service are an inspiration to us all.
