Commenting ahead of the Awards John Swinney said:
‘I know and have met many inspirational young people in Perthshire North over the years, who dedicate themselves to helping others in different ways.
‘Anyone who can think of someone they know, or a group project, which deserves recognition at national level, should submit a nomination to the Young Scot Awards.
‘There are a number of different award categories, and the more people or groups put forward the better. This is a good opportunity to flag up the good work going on in Perthshire North.’
