Young Scots volunteering abroad are the focus of this inspirational film, made through Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú Scotland's L.A.B project.

Sean Neilson spent three weeks in Thailand after winning funding from the Magnus Magnusson Foundation. He was working with children with a range of difficulties, including foetal alcohol syndrome and cerebral palsy; the condition which affected his younger brother Ryan who died aged 12.

Ben, Sean, Jamie and Laurie - all from Edinburgh - were among a collection of Scouts groups from across Scotland who went to Malawi to help build a water pipe system for the local maize mill. Their video diaries paint a picture of their personal journeys, the challenges they encountered and the people they met.

Making an impassioned plea for more people to get into volunteering, Sean Neilson says: 'It is amazing how when you give something back to other people that you feel more of a whole person yourself'.

The L.A.B - learn @ Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú Scotland - is part of Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú Scotland Learning Department and works with school and community groups around Scotland who want to develop their digital media skills.
