Staf is bringing people together for something special - a brand new series of online summits designed to spark ideas, challenge thinking and strengthen the support around care experienced young people. Whether you’re a long-standing member or new to Staf, these sessions offer a unique space to connect, reflect and be inspired by voices from across policy, practice and lived experience.

At the heart of everything we do is a simple but powerful belief: real change happens when we listen, learn and act together. From amplifying the voices of young people with care and justice experience, to strengthening relationships and improving systems, Staf’s work is rooted in collaboration and shared learning. Our new summits build on that commitment - and we want you to be a part of it.

• No Wrong Door: Improving Transitions into Adult Services 30 June
  A deep dive into how we can break down barriers and ensure young people experience smoother, more supportive transitions into adulthood.

• Rights, Relationships and Reform in Aftercare 25 August
  Reflect on what meaningful aftercare looks like, grounded in rights, driven by relationships and shaped by ongoing reform.

Why join us?

Across Scotland, there is growing recognition that systems can feel complex and fragmented, but strong relationships, shared learning and collective action can transform outcomes for young people. These summits are your chance to:

• Hear directly from those with lived experience

• Engage with fresh thinking and emerging practice

• Connect with others across sectors

• Be part of shaping what comes next

Who is it for?

You don’t need to be a Staf member to join. Everyone with an interest in improving outcomes for care experienced young people is welcome. So whether you’re looking to learn, connect or contribute, we’d love to have you with us. Member rates and further discounts available when you book all 3 events.

Let’s come together this summer to listen, learn and lead change.
