Youth Summer Course in Dundee | Lead & Connect with Bring Together

Learning Growing & Leading From day one, our young participants jumped into every challenge: building communication, developing self-awareness, practising negotiation—and most importantly—learning to listen. Whether deciding together on a social activity or talking about leadership during a film night, the emphasis was always on turning everyday moments into lasting lessons. After the first week, the group moved through the “storming” stage and agreed clear ground rules so everyone felt included and valued. A standout moment was a role-play scenario where participants developed mediation skills and successfully facilitated a resolution between a customer and a client. Colaboration in Dundee Reflection Time Reflection & Shared Learning Moments of reflection helped the group turn practice into understanding. Personality insights, gentle debriefs, and peer feedback sessions made space for everyone to be heard—and to notice what had changed in themselves and in the team. Team Activities Group activities and light-touch challenges strengthened trust and communication. The group negotiated choices together and found ways to include every voice—turning potential conflict into connection. Team activities What Participants Said “I am feeling comfortable. It was an interactive course. I got conflict management from this course… I also found many friends. I know now who to hang out with.”“I feeling myself calm. I like social engagement with pizza, it was fun. It reminded me that I need to think out of the box.”“I am feeling happy, that is my lifestyle. I liked social engagement and teamwork—we worked in teams where everybody helped us to solve the problem.”“I liked social engagement. It was very important to gain mediation skills. Next time, when we chose our activity (villagers and wolves game), we didn’t argue. It was much better.” Closing celebration Deep Gratitude It is incredibly rewarding for our team at Bring Together to reflect on the journey of this programme. We are proud of every young person who brought to the course their unique backgrounds, stories and aspirations—many made new friends and discovered like-minded peers along the way. None of this would have been possible without the steadfast support of the NHS Charitable Trust, YMCA Broughty Ferry, Ukrainians Together in Scotland, and our passionate volunteers. Your belief in youth empowerment and collaboration helped turn ideas into action. Watch the Story Looking Forward As we wrap up, we celebrate not only what’s been learned but also the confidence, resilience and leadership that have been built. We hope these lessons ripple outward, empowering these young people in all walks of life. Thank you to everyone who participated, supported, and made this journey possible. We can’t wait to see what comes next from this adventure—because together, we truly are stronger.
