Join Young Sea Changers Scotland members from across the country for our community event of the year!

The annual YSCS Community Gathering is back for 2026 and this year we're heading to the capital!

If you're 16-25, living in Scotland and interested in the sea, join fellow Young Sea Changers Scotland members for a relaxed day of skill-building, advocacy planning and socialising in Edinburgh. Our annual gathering is the key moment of the year to get together IRL with the YSCS community, and an amazing opportunity to turn your passion for the underwater world into real action, with the help of the YSCS team and like-minded young people from across Scotland.

We'll hear what other members have been up to, meet a politician, take part in advocacy skills workshops, and have a chance to put our heads together to plan the next steps for youth-led ocean action.

Full programme below!

NB: you don't need to be a YSCS member to attend! If you want to check out what we're all about, we'd love to welcome you to the event!

If you're interested in attending but want to discuss it with the YSCS team, please feel free to get in touch via contact@youthforseas.org.
