Dandelion Project Moray

Feeling incredibly privileged to have attended the Milne’s High School Award Ceremony last night, celebrating the achievements of their pupils. It was inspiring to see so many young people recognised for their hard work, creative and commitment ⭐️

The Dandelion Project was especially honoured to present the Lennox Community Council Award to a fantastic group of pupils who have played a role in shaping the Project. Their creativity in developing merchandise ideas, including Buckets and Spades, along with their enthusiasm and engagement, has been wonderful. 🪣🪏

A huge congratulations to all of the award winners 🏅

Look out for Dandelion Project Buckets and Spades at future events 👀💛

Beautiful work created by talented pupils, and delighted to see some winners from Moray 💛

Thank you Never Such Innocence 💫

🇬🇧Armed Forces Week 2026🇬🇧

Today makes the start of Armed Forces Week, a time to recognise and thank those who serve, or have served, in our Armed Forces along with their families and the wider military community.

Armed Forces Week (22-27 June) is a national campaign to build public understanding and support for the Armed Forces community- regular, reserves, veterans, cadets, cadet adult volunteers and military families.

Throughout the week, we pay tribute to their dedication and sacrificed protecting our country and supporting communities at home and around the world. 🌍

As we look ahead to Armed Forces Day on Saturday 27 June, let us take the opportunity to show our appreciation and thanking the entire military community. They are dedicated to keeping us safe and protecting our way of life 💛

Thank you for your service 💫

🏆We have a winner! 🏆

Thank you to everyone who entered this year’s Dandelion Project Month of the Military Child Competition. The task was to design a cape, based on the theme, ‘We are Superheroes’. 🌟

We received a huge number of fantastic entries so judging each one was incredibly tough. It was really clear to see the thought and effort that went into every design. We were really impressed! 🎨🖌️

A huge well done to Leo C (P7) from Hythehill Primary School who won the competition this year. His design was very effective. We hope you enjoy your goody bag of prizes Leo and thank you for taking part! 🏅

Over the next few months, the Service Children’s Progression Alliance Impact Centre are hosting over 30 events across the UK to conduct discussion groups on the topic of mobilisation. They will be in Scotland, at the locations detailed on the information leaflet below, from the 25th May- 2nd June. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
