Teenager delighted after picking up pair of accolades at the Young Scot Awards for volunteering work at Active Stirling

- STUART MCFARLANE

A Stirling teenager who has volunteered more than 200 hours for a local sporting organisation picked up a pair of top prizes for her efforts this week.

Ellie Hodge, 16, is a dedicated volunteer for Active Stirling and was nominated for two gongs at the Young Scot Awards 2025 held in Glasgow on Monday evening after being shortlisted from more 400 nominees all over the country.

Her nomination praised her passion for making sport and physical activity, with Ellie put forward for the Health and Wellbeing Award at the glittering ceremony at the city's Platform venue.

She walked away with that prize - but more was to come later on as she was also named the overall Young Scot of the Year.
