“ The award of support from CashBack for Communities recognises the work YDance does using dance participation to improve the lives of children and young people all over Scotland .
“ CashBack for Change brings together two key youth arts organisations – YDance and Glass Performance – to deliver a wide-ranging programme which will benefit young people in the criminal justice system and provide pathways for young people to divert their lives away from involvement in criminal behaviour and towards positive destinations and brighter futures .”
