Giving all children in Scotland an equal chance to flourish is at the heart of everything we do.
By bringing together a network of people working with and for children, alongside children and young people themselves, we offer a broad, balanced and independent voice. We create solutions, provide support and develop positive change across all areas affecting children in Scotland. We do this by listening, gathering evidence, and applying and sharing our learning, while always working to uphold children’s rights. Our range of knowledge and expertise means we can provide trusted support on issues as diverse as the people we work with and the varied lives of children and families in Scotland.
Children in Scotland is Scotland’s largest national membership body for individuals and organisations seeking to improve the lives of children and young people. We are committed to promoting the rights of children. Our vision is that all children in Scotland have an equal chance to flourish.
We do this through:
1. Working with, growing, supporting and learning from our membership.
2. Working and collaborating with a wider set of partners on policy issues and projects.
3. Delivery of direct services
4. Management of direct funds.
5. Supporting the development of the sector workforce through our learning programme
6. Development and implementation of projects aimed at supporting our vision with a big emphasis on participation and engagement work with children, young people and families.
