The organisation formed in early 2005 by the merger of the Scottish Young Conservatives and the Scottish Conservative and Unionist Students (SCUS) group, a process which had happened with its sister organisation in the rest of the United Kingdom - Conservative Future - in 1998. Its membership comprised all of the Scottish Conservative Party's members under the age of 30[1] or who were currently in higher education. The organisation formed itself into three regions, each with its own executive. Within the regions University Conservative and Unionist Associations and area Conservative Future branches organised at the local level.

CFS was the independent sister organisation of Conservative Future, the former central Conservative Party body that operated in the rest of the UK.

The Scottish Conservative Party itself, following the 2017 General Election, has 13 Westminster MPs in Scotland.

The 2016/17 elections were held in December 2016 and saw James Bundy elected to the post of National Chair. Max Bannerman was elected to the post of National Treasurer and Stephen Caulfield was elected to the position of National Secretary. The organisation was abolished in 2019, and was replaced with the Scottish Young Conservatives
