- Motion reference: S6M-02809
That the Parliament commends Fearless.org for its Crimestoppers Youth Service, which, it understands, was established in response to school and youth group closures during the COVID-19 pandemic to provide a safety net for young people; notes what it sees as the importance of this initiative in empowering young people by providing them with key information about high-harm crimes, and a crucial, anonymous, and much needed alternative way of reporting crime; recognises the outstanding work by Fearless.org in providing what it sees as a vital service within Scotland's communities; hopes that this vital service will continue to thrive and provide support and advice for young people, and wishes the organisation all the very best for the future.
