This money will help three students through one year of their legal education. 🎓

As we rebuild in our communities and economy across the country, Scotland has the potential to be a global leader in innovation and entrepreneurship.
Growth must be inclusive - equal access to upskilling, stable jobs for all and productivity is key. 🏢🌐🏗️📝
.@scotgoveconomy will launch its strategy for economic transformation this week. In today's @TheScotsman our CEO @SFE_Sandy says the strategy needs to tackle Scotland’s long-term productivity challenge with a clear focus on entrepreneurial growth.

"I have a sense of permanency. The flat's mine, I can redecorate, I can plan for my future, I can get a job and look forward to things. Hopefully, one day, I can get a dog."
#HousingFirst supports people to look forward - with agency, strengths, goals, aspirations.
And dogs 🐶
Excellent work on this in Aberdeen and across Scotland 🏦🗨️🗳️📈
