Ocean Youth Trust Scotland is a leading youth work charity and floating outdoor education centre. Through our adventurous residential sailing voyages and the help of hundreds of volunteers, we support young people aged 12-25 to realise their true potential.
Over 700 young people from a diverse range of backgrounds sail with us each year for 5 or 7-days at a time. Working with groups and individuals, we support schools, young carers, youth groups, young people with additional support needs, sailing clubs and many more.

We are committed to providing opportunities for everyone and have financial assistance available for both groups and individuals.
