97. Scott Gilmour - Generational Change, Building Connections, and the I Have a Dream Trust
Scott Gilmour is the chair and founder of the I Have A Dream Trust.
I Have a Dream is an organisation working to support children through building relationships that span years. It is a programme that, as you will hear, was a long time in the making for Scott, but he followed his intuition, used the resources he had, and now supports over 20 workers, or navigators as they call them, who are supporting students across 5 schools, from the day they start school until they are 20.
Scott comes from a business and technology background, so we talk a bit about that. We also talk about his involvement in Angel Investing - something that was new to me that I think is brilliant. And then we dive into how I Have a Dream came about, how it works, and what results they are seeing over 20 years in.
Check out this summary video of I Have a Dream, or find them on their website, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube or LinkedIn.
