It was founded in 1958, when CND was founded, and was one of the centres of a CND revival in the 1970s. The current Chair of the organisation is Dr Alan Mackinnon.
It has an office in Glasgow, which organises anti-war protests in Glasgow, Edinburgh and blockades at Faslane.
The nuclear submarine base at Faslane had provided a focal point for Scottish CND from 1968 when the Polaris nuclear weapons system was based there up to the present with the Trident system.
