02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
To promote Scottish country dancing to the entire age spectrum. This financial year we ran classes for children aged 5 -15 with the branch subsidising the initiative. We also hold weekly dance classes where instructions are given by a qualified RSCDS teacher and the dances are danced to love music. The St Andrews branch subsidises this weekly dancing activity. The St Andrews branch also runs tea dances where dancers from other branches attend.
