A GROUP of vulnerable youngsters have graduated from a sports mentoring course.

Action for Children Scotland funded the course at Glasgow Clyde College.

The students, aged 16-21, became involved with the charity after facing challenges such as domestic abuse, bereavement and parental and drug abuse.

Michael McSween, 18 from Glasgow, said: "Being back in a classroom was strange at first, but I have proved to myself that I can stick in and work hard."

The course was funded by CashBack for Communities.
