About YouthLink Scotland

YouthLink Scotland is the national agency for youth work in Scotland, dedicated to supporting young people and the organisations that work with them. Established to promote the value of youth work, we strive to empower young individuals by providing them with opportunities to develop their skills, confidence, and resilience.

Our core activities include:

• Advocacy: We advocate for the importance of youth work at local and national levels, ensuring that the voices of young people are heard.
• Support: We offer support to youth work organisations through training, resources, and funding opportunities.
• Collaboration: We foster collaboration among various stakeholders, including government bodies, educational institutions, and community organisations.
• Research: We conduct research to inform policy and practice in youth work, ensuring that our approaches are evidence-based.

At YouthLink Scotland, we believe in the potential of every young person. Our vision is to create a society where all young people have access to quality youth work, enabling them to thrive and contribute positively to their communities. We are committed to inclusivity, ensuring that our services reach the most disadvantaged and marginalised groups.

Through our initiatives, we aim to inspire young people to take an active role in shaping their futures and the world around them. Join us in our mission to empower the next generation of leaders and change-makers in Scotland.
