Response
Please see individual answers to your questions below.
1. LGBT Youth Scotland are an independent charity. The Scottish Government does not have any control over all of the work that they do, just the work and projects we fund. As such, it would not be for the Scottish Government to query the age of children and young people that LGBT Youth Scotland works with. We are happy that this organisation is fulfilling the conditions of their grant from the Scottish Government.
2. All of the information you have requested is available from LGBT Youth Scotland funding: FOI release - gov.scot.
