To every CHS volunteer who gives their time, their attention, and their 'why' - thank you.

Thank you for the time spent preparing, the care taken in observing, the work involved in building strong panels - and for the 'why' that drives you all.

This Volunteers’ Week, and every week, we are grateful for everything you do. 💛

A strong panel is a supported panel.

Panel Engagement Leads help bring people together. Learning Champions promote learning opportunities.

Learning Academy Facilitators support our trainers during pre-service training.

Your work helps volunteers feel supported, informed and valued - so they can ensure positive outcomes for children and young people.

Thank you for keeping our Panel Community strong.

Strong decision making doesn’t happen in isolation.

Panel Practice Advisers observe hearings, support reflective practice, and help ensure consistency and quality across hearings.

Your role strengthens confidence, learning and fairness — supporting Panel Members so children receive the best possible experience in their hearing.

Thank you for the thoughtful, professional support you provide.

Panel Members prepare carefully, listen attentively, and take children’s views seriously.

Sometimes it’s just one hearing.

One conversation.

One moment of feeling heard.

That moment can stay with a child long after the hearing ends.

Thank you to our Panel Members for the care, preparation and attention you bring to every hearing.

At Children's Hearings Scotland, volunteers take on different roles - but they are united by one shared 'why'.

A belief in fairness.

A commitment to children's voices.

A willingness to give time, care and attention when it matters most.

This Volunteers' Week, we're celebrating every volunteer who helps make the hearings system stronger for children and young people across Scotland.
