About our Club

Meetings:  Meetings are held on the second Wednesday evening of the month in Teanninich Castle, Alness. Meetings start at 6.30 p.m. when we have a speaker and is preceded  by a two course supper and our business meetings start at 7.30 p.m.. During January and February we have our speaker meetings on Saturday lunchtime at 12.30 p.m.  We also hold additional events during the year including other social events.

Programme Action:

Our President’s chosen charity this year is Companas. Companas Cottage is a drop-in resource centre run by Support In Mind Scotland for adults who are experiencing, or have experienced, mental illness or mental health problems.

We will be arranging a number of events in support of this very worthy charity.

We also support a number of local causes, for example:

County Hospital, Invergordon – where we have completely revitalised the Courtyard garden so that the patients can enjoy a peaceful place to sit and relax.  Our members will be continuing to maintain this garden on behalf of the hospital and patients.

Tools for Africa – our members collect old and unwanted tools which are then passed on so that they can be refurbished and sent to Africa to be used.

Annually our members hold an event in aid of Book Aid International, we have stalls and raise funds for the RNLI in Invergordon and the Feil Maree in Dingwall and these are just some of the causes that we support.

Friendship Links:  the club has links with Ashton under Lyne, Richmond and Dales, Yorkshire, Oslo, La Jolla, California
