Scottish Young Labour promotes democratic socialist, youth politics within the Scottish Labour Party and wider society. SYL works to advance the interests of young people by organising alongside them in their workplaces and communities. It has strong links with trade unions, social movements, and Young Labour at a national level.

Events

Scottish Young Labour hosts an annual conference that elects the national committee and passes policy. Prior to 2017 Scottish Young Labour held joint events with Scottish Labour Students. It also holds a range of events throughout the year including workshops, political education, activist training, and an Open Forum for the entire party membership.
