Object:
The organisations purposes are focused on growing Christian faith in younger people, with a number of interlocking strands: to offer children, young people and younger adults opportunities for Christian discipleship and spiritual growth to attend to physical needs and to mental well-being as an intrinsic part of spiritual development to offer children and young people learning opportunities in personal, moral and social education, which would include work in schools and in pupils' free time to support and enhance family life, always with attention to individual circumstances and including the full range of family groupings to promote ways in which children, young people and younger adults may support one another and put something into the wider community while upholding Christian faith in its fullness, to uphold equally the need for good co-existence with those of different persuasion. The outreach will be open to all.
Operations:
What the charity is set up to do and how it does this:
With the vision focused on growing Christian faith in younger people, a clear priority has been to employ someone full-time to devote attention and creativity to the task. After an initial period of raising funds and securing a mode of joint working with others, an appointment was made. Work commenced in and around the local church, within local schools and over weekends away; there was networking with others involved in similar work. The charitable purposes of GYC were upheld as the Trustees together with someone from Scripture Union Scotland gave oversight to the Worker. We are thankful for all that was achieved in this year 2024-25 through the generosity of donors and the commitment of Trustees and others.

From 09 March 2026, OSCR is required by law to publish the names of a charity’s trustees as part of its Scottish Charity Register entry. We are also required to publish each charity’s annual report and accounts as received from this date, which may include the names of certain individuals. The only exceptions to publication are where a charity or one of its charity trustees applies for this information to be excluded, and OSCR is satisfied that publishing it would jeopardise the safety or security of a person or premises.

If the charity trustee information on a Register entry appears blank, this may mean that an exemption applies or that the charity has not yet provided the required details to OSCR. Supplying this information will become mandatory as part of future annual submissions.
Copyright

From 30 June 2025, OSCR began collecting charity trustee information through OSCR Online. Providing this information is a legal requirement for all charities. The names of trustees will be published on the Scottish Charity Register from early 2026 to promote transparency and strengthen public trust in the sector.
