Take on a challenge in 2021

Support Scotland's children

SCOTLAND'S NATIONAL CHILDREN'S CHARITY

The coronavirus crisis has brought huge challenges for families across Scotland. Children and their families are already telling us that they are finding this second lockdown harder and that more children and young people are in real distress.

 As the First Minister announces a gradual return to schools from the end of February, we are inviting parents and carers to take part in a national survey about what emotional and practical support their children will need when they return to school. Every child has felt the impact of this terrible pandemic and we are calling on the Scottish Government and the Scottish education sector to put children and young people’s emotional and social wellbeing at the heart of covid recovery.

  • Find support
