There are lots of other activities going on in the space so if you get bored of us, go and explore!
All you need to bring is yourself and some good vibes 
PY has been working away completing our LGBT Charter with LGBT Youth Scotland and last week we got the fantastic news that we have officially achieved our Silver Award! Pretty great Pride Month news if you ask me!
This has been a lot of work over the last 18 months-ish and we are all really proud of the team and our young people who have embraced it. Attached is a document sharing this news – please feel free to share with your staff, young people and any other contacts!
‘I am humbled by the generosity and humanity of the local community in reaching out to help those in need.’ – Colin Keir MSP
Edinburgh Western MSP Colin Keir joined volunteers at the Muirhouse Community Shop yesterday to help collect and sort donations of clothing for Syrian refugees.
Mr Keir said: “I was overwhelmed by the support for this initiative from the local community in Muirhouse. It shows that Muirhouse cares for the plight of Syrian refugees and as winter approaches these donations will be much appreciated by those in need.
“This is a great partnership between the local community, its community organisations and Edinburgh Direct Aid to provide some comfort to those refugees now living in very difficult conditions in refugee camps. Once again I am humbled by the generosity and humanity of the local community in reaching out to help those in need.”
The initiative was organised by Tenants and Residents in Muirhouse (TRIM), Muirhouse Community Shop, Pilton Youth & Children Project and Spartans. The donations were sorted by the volunteers before delivery to Edinburgh Direct Aid.
