Do you ever do any shopping on-line? Dover Town Council - sponsors (Grant) of our Society.
If so, here is a way you can help your Society - log onto Easyfundraising.org.uk and do your purchasing through them - over 2000 retailers are signed up and you shop normally as though you had gone direct to the retailers website. This way, each purchase can benefit the Dover & East Kent Scottish Society. CLICK HERE
PROMOTING SCOTLAND SINCE 1887
We are committed to promoting Scottish Culture and Heritage and you will find we dedicate many
of the pages here to just that. Our Society is the oldest existing Scottish Society in Kent, in the top
five oldest in England and among the oldest in the world!! Be Proud Of It !
(Although this website is for The Dover and East Kent Scottish Society the views and comments may not necessarily be
those of the Committee and is therefore operated on an Unofficial Capacity, as many of the articles and views may be of
members or indeed other people or Societies. Therefore, any queries should be directed to the webmaster and not the
Dover and East Kent Scottish Society. )
We are just a small Society with just over 100 members and will always welcome new members.
If you are Scottish or have Scottish parents or grandparents and live in the South East England area please
consider joining - for just £5 per year membership ! We hold traditional Dinner Dances - St Andrew's Night
and Burns' Suppers plus informal Ceilidhs which are great fun.
We also publish a Society magazine - The WeeBletherer - and engage in other fun activities, such as Day Trips etc.
If you are a business and would like to advertise on this site - please contact the Secretary as I am sure a good
rate could be negotiated. Other clubs or societies are welcome to enquire about partnership links.
I should re-iterate that we are run on a not for profit basis and the Society is more of a charitable Society yet
we obviously need to cover costs. All funds are ploughed back into the Society or donated to worthwhile causes
for the benefit of members and those charities. A list of those we have helped appear later in the website.
