About Membership

As the national network for improving children's lives, our active membership is essential to achieving our vision that all children have an equal chance to flourish.

We have hundreds of organisations and individuals in membership, from schools, charities and nurseries to NHS Boards, local authorities and community interest groups. By bringing such a variety of skills and experiences together, we can use our influence to push for real change in Scottish policy, practice and culture.

Our members say...

'From campaigning to make children’s voices heard in the rooms where decisions happen, to making sure the needs of young people are remembered in Scotland’s policy landscape, working together for the benefit of Scotland’s children is a privilege. We know that there are children who are freer and happier because of the work of Children in Scotland over the last 30 years, and we look forward to continuing to work together going forwards”

Dr Marsha Scott, Scottish Women’s Aid
