Unsung Glasgow North East heroes receive awards

I attended the Glasgow North Community champions awards to cheer on one of our Glasgow MSYPs Julie Lennox (MSYP for Glasgow Springburn), She was nominated by a member of the Glasgow North east community for all the hard work she puts into being an MSYP and her outstanding record for volunteering she does for Glasgow North East. Julie is now into her second term after winning the SYP by-election in Springburn over a year ago. She also won "MSYP of the year 2009" for the hard work she put into helping her constituents. Julie also runs her own Youth Club that she set up in her constituency and has been a great success after months of hard work. Julie feels passionate about young people getting on in her constituency and wants to focus on gang tension in the area. She is a true pillar to her community and I genuinely respect that. She was nominated for the Youth Award which she sadly did not win. I think the most important thing is that people recognised her effort and hard work she has put into the area and remains a well respected young person in her area. So well done Julie!
