Congratulations to LindaNorgroveFoundation UK Government Scotland Scottish Government for the voluntary sector partnership award at #spsa2024. Richly deserved for an incredible opportunity for the woman from 🇦🇫.

This partnership working between Scotland Office and Scottish Government is testament to the ‘reset’ but the real credit here belongs to the extraordinary LindaNorgroveFoundation, Linda’s family and our Afghan sisters who are now studying in Scotland. Stars all.

We're delighted to receive this award. Thanks again to all our supporters, and those at Scotland Office and Scottish Government, who helped ensure 19 Afghan women can continue their medical studies.
