Galashiels Academy pupils produced a video for the Commission about the issues of age, distance and language and whether these make a difference when getting involved with the Scottish Parliament. This was shown at the event in Galashiels on Monday 27^th February.

The pupils also set a hashtag challenge  – to come up with a hashtag that the Parliament could use which would help raise its profile and people would associate with. You can view the designs here.The favourite was #SP4ME.

Runners up were –
