Beth-Anne McDowall

Board Member

Appointed July 1 2017

"Hi, I’m Beth and I’m a Board Member here at Children’s Hearings Scotland. I joined the board because I have a fierce passion for ensuring every child in Scotland has what they need to be safe, happy and healthy.

I grew up in care with my first children’s hearing being when I was just 6 weeks old. I’ve attended hundreds of children’s hearings over the years and as I got older and my confidence grew I began to own the hearing as my space to have influence over decisions that Panel Members were making about my life.

I want every child in Scotland who attends hearings to have that same confidence to shape, own and design their own future alongside Panel Members because I believe it can be done, and it does make a difference. This is your space, and I want to help you own it."
