WHO WE ARE

Scripture Union Scotland is a national charity, with around 120 staff and over 2,200 volunteers. Our vision is to see every child and young person of Scotland exploring the Bible and responding to the significance of Jesus.

Our centres regularly host school groups participating in residential experiences, youth groups enjoying weekend breaks and a variety of SU Holidays. Making the most of the stunning opportunities that Scotland’s countryside affords, we use outdoor activities to build relationships with young people, enabling them to have fun, develop new skills and work together. 

We currently have a vacancy for an Activities Instructor to be based at our Lendrick Muir Centre, near Kinross.  Lendrick Muir is set in 120 acres of grounds with accommodation for 163 guests.
