All placements are approximately 20–30 hours per week and last for a minimum of 3 months. To date, ProjectScotland has placed more than 5,000 young people, who have in turn completed over 3 million hours' worth of volunteering throughout Scotland. The volunteering opportunities help young people unlock their potential and take part in meaningful youth social action, but also have a multiplier effect by benefiting hundreds of charities across Scotland, local communities and Scotland's Third Sector. ProjectScotland provide all of their volunteers with critical developmental support including help with travel expenses; a local mentor to help them set and achieve goals, before, during and after placement; and access to ProjectScotland's employability workshop programme which held throughout the year across Scotland. Project Scotland's main aims at both a local and national level are to: * support all young people throughout Scotland to get on in life regardless of age, stage or qualifications; * significantly increase the employability chances of young people through growing their skills and experience; * help young people give back to their communities, encouraging a culture of volunteering for Scotland's youth; * promote the benefits of investing in the young people of Scotland long term, * support and increase the capacity of local charity organisations and Scotland's Third Sector.
