Arthur Robertson has done a tremendous job over the last three years, supporting the volunteer team at ceilidhs, and keeping all the ceilidhs running smoothly on the night. He’s now decided to step down from his role to enjoy a bit more dancing! Many thanks, Arthur for all your help!

Would you be interested in helping out? We are looking for someone who could commit to being at the ceilidh for the evening, and support our regular team of volunteers. If you’d like to find out more, please email Ros
