We also work in 3 local high schools lunchtime information sessions for pupils and run full programmes each day of the summer holidays involving sports, arts and crafts, games, trips etc. Govan Youth Information Project relies on the work of volunteers for projects and activities that it carries out throughout the year, and volunteers get involved in all aspects of our work, working alongside and supported by our full-time staff.
