Edinburgh Champions Board
The board works with care experienced young people and children to get their views about the care system and make positive changes. They work with key decision-makers and use their experiences to improve the system.
"We are part of a community where we are seen, valued and loved. We meet every two weeks to have dinner, chat and work on issues that are important to us. We get creative, have fun, even when dealing with important issues, and support each other to achive our goals."
