Welcome to

Midnight and Beyond

Charity Number: SC051868

A Scottish Charity delivering Diversionary and Support programmes for young people (14-26 years) and their families in North Edinburgh. 

Our mission is rooted in a belief that every young person deserves an opportunity to thrive, make positive choices and contribute meaningfully to society. 

Midnight and Beyond symbolises a commitment to creating a safe haven where trust and respect flourishes and young people feel .valued, supported and equipped to overcome challenges and build promising futures, even in the late hours of the night.

Midnight and Beyond embodies resilience, hope, and support, breaking barriers to help them reach their full potential.

Midnight & Beyond

Our Midnight & Beyond programme not only focuses on building relationships and offering alternative diversionary activities until 3am in nature, but also provides comprehensive support, including one-to-one, family and court support, addressing the diverse needs of young men during these crucial hours and beyond. So successful we named the Charity after it!

We have our own Minibus thanks to our generous funders and use the outdoors as our base.

On Track

Based at our container at Gypsy Brae and outreach work, the “On Track” initiative is a comprehensive programme aimed at removing barriers for young men, supporting them on their journey to employment, and guiding them towards positive destinations. Through this initiative, they acquire valuable skills and access various opportunities, ensuring a pathway to presonal and professional growth. Young people can also gain their CSCS Green Card which enables them to work in the construction industry.

We also run an alternative school programme in Partnership with Craigroyston Community High School for young men at risk/disengaging from school or with gaps in their timetable.

Go Beyond

The Go Beyond programme focuses on providing young men with opportunities to explore and challenge themselves beyond their comfort zones through activities like hiking, nature walks, boxing, strength training, fitness and engaging in outdoor experiences. The programme aims to promote personal growth, resilience and a sense of accomplishment. It encourages participants to ‘go beyond’ their percieved limits, fostering a positive impact on their mental well-being and overall development.

We also have our outdoor gym at our track thanks to our generous funders.

In September 2025 we took on the 4000m Glacier and Mountain Challenge – Gran Paradiso in Italy. We went to Switzerland, France and Italy. The lads smashed it!!!

‘Midnight and Beyond isn’t just a Charity. It’s a lifeline, empowering young men to envisage & embrace positive futures’
