  • collect books, manuscripts, illustrations and other memorabilia relating to SCD and the Society

who are appointed at the Annual General Meeting of the Branch for a period of one year.

Why be part of the Committee?

It’s a chance to shape the future of the Branch, give back, and be part of a supportive, fun, and creative team helping to keep Scottish Country Dancing thriving in our community.

If you’re curious or considering it, please chat with the President or any Committee member – we’d be delighted to tell you more!

We want people with enthusiasm, energy, and a willingness to pitch in.

You don’t need to be an expert in everything! Do you have skills in organisation, communication, financial records, project management, or minute-taking? Are you creative and full of ideas? Then we’d love to have you on board!

What’s the commitment?

 The committee meets every two months (face-to-face or online). The election is for just one year at a time (with the option to continue for up to 5 years).

If we have more nominations than vacant positions, a ballot will be held at the AGM.
