BUSY would like to see young people thrive and have hope at the heart of a community that values them.

BUSY activities are for anyone from P7 to S6 who lives around the Uphall and Broxburn areas. They take place in schools, church halls and elsewhere! Have a look below at some of the things we offer.

Upcoming Special Event

We’re excited to be part of another fantastic weekend for Edinburgh young people in S1-S6.

Lendrick Muir, near Kinross, is the perfect place in the countryside for a great weekend. Inside there are comfortable dorms, a large games hall and space to relax and chill out.

There will be a variety of activity choices, both indoor and outdoor, including those listed below, and over the weekend we’ll also have time to explore the Bible together and chat about what it says.

This is a great opportunity to connect with other young people from across Edinburgh, to make new friends, and have lots of fun!

All the activities plus meals and accommodation are included in the price.

Travel is also included with coaches from the Gyle Centre and Morrison’s on Ferry Road – book early to make sure you get your first choice! The buses will leave at 6pm on the Friday and return between 3.45 and 4pm on the Sunday.

Spaces are limited, so don’t miss out on this chance to celebrate the season together!

When: 27 February - 1 March

Where: SU Scotland’s Centre Lendrick Muir

Cost: £115* (If you’re booking as a BUSY Project member, you’ll pay a reduced price of £60 per person. Please use the code BUSY60 when registering).

Exciting New Activities Coming Soon!

We’re launching three exciting new clubs designed to inspire, equip, and uplift young people. See detailed information below.
