Conservative Future Scotland (CFS) is the youth group of the Scottish Conservative Party, based at Scottish Conservative Central Office in Edinburgh.

It formed in early 2005 by the merger of the Scottish Young Conservatives and the Scottish Conservative & Unionists Students group, a process which had happened with its sister organisation in England & Wales in 1998. Its membership comprises all of the Scottish Conservative Party members under the age of 30 or who are currently in higher education. As such, it forms itself into University Conservative and Unionist Associations and area Conservative Future branches.

CFS is autonomous from Conservative Future in England & Wales. However delegates from the Scottish organisation attend the annual CF conference there.
