SU Scotland's vision is to see every child and young person in Scotland exploring the Bible and responding to the significance of Jesus. With around 2500 volunteers and 155 staff, we connect with young people where they are at - in their local schools and communities, at our Holidays and annual Magnitude Festival, through online groups and at our activity centres. Everything we do is about creating life-changing outcomes for children and young people on their faith journeys.

Beneficiaries: 'Children or young people'

Objectives: The objects for which the Scripture Union is established are as follows: 3.1 To aid the Christian Church in its ministries by specialised services whereby the Word of God is presented, especially to children and young people, so that those to whom it is presented may be led to personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, may be encouraged and instructed in the development of Christian character and witness and in a sense of vocation, and may take their place as members and workers in the life of their churches and of society. 3.2 To promote thoughtful Bible Reading amongst people of all ages with a view to furthering personal discipleship, Christian community and social concern.
