Wed, 23 September 2026, 13:00-14:00Join Youthlink Scotland, Fast Forward and Education Scotland, for a discussion about maths and numeracy in a youth work context and hear about toolkits, projects and resources that you can use in your settings.
Hear about Royal Bank Thrive Financial Literacy, some of the work Fast Forward and Young Scot are doing about gambling, and more to raise awareness of gaming and gambling-related harms alongside delivering education and prevention methods.
Find out about Education Scotland resources and support for maths in Youth Work settings. There will be time to discuss how Youth Workers can encourage everyday practical maths/numeracy skills, from reading a timetable or a payslip to how to curl a football, the challenges and support that youth workers need.
