NEW YOUNG SCOT APP

There is now a Young Scot app which can be downloaded to the young person’s phone at
https://young.scot. The Young Scot card can then be linked to the app to take advantage of
exciting features including:

 *The ability to order a replacement Young Scot National Entitlement Card through the app for
anyone over the age of 12.
 *A digital card within the app that will allow young people to access ‘show and go discounts’
in stores
 *A ‘Near Me’ interactive map of discounts in their local area and beyond.

However, the physical card must still be used for free bus travel and proof of age.

For any young person who does not yet have a Young Scot card, please visit the council’s
website at www.westlothian.gov.uk/young-scot-card where you will find out more information and details on how to apply.

Please email YoungScot@westlothian.gov.uk if you have any questions.
