What the charity exists to do
As per our charitable purposes, we aim to safeguard Jacobite heritage with a particular emphasis on the 1745 rebellion.

In order to meet these aims, the charity holds an Annual Gathering with its AGM and this includes visits to a number of historical Jacobite sites including castles, estates and battlefields. The charity publishes a quarterly journal for its membership covering recent Jacobite research and publications and highlighting upcoming exhibitions and events. The charity maintains a number of Jacobite monuments across Scotland, holds a library of related books in the A K Bell Library in Perth and organises talks and other events throughout the year.
