Young Archaeologists' Club
The Young Archaeologists' Club is the only UK-wide club of its kind for young people interested in archaeology. Young people up to the age of 17 can join the UK club. It is aimed at young people aged 8-16; those aged under 8 can join if they wish. Members receive four copies of the YAC magazine, Young Archaeologist, each year; a membership pack including a membership card, badge and certificate; and a YAC Pass packed with special offers, such as free entry to many museums and heritage sites across the UK (including all Historic Scotland sites!). Visit the YAC-UK web site to join and for more information.
Archaeology Scotland co-ordinates and supports the YAC Branches in Scotland, where young people between 8 and 16 can learn about and get involved in their local archaeology. Branches usually meet monthly for a range of fun activities, both indoors and out. Please note: some Branches may have waiting lists to join. There are 10 active YAC Branches in the Scottish Network, from the Lothians to Highlands. For more information, including details on how to get involved, contact Rebecca Boyde, the YAC Officer (Scotland).
