The Reading St Andrew’s Scottish Dancing Society was formed in September 1949 which means that it will be 70 years old this year. The first event to mark the occasion will be a reunion on the afternoon of 31 August 2019. There will be tea and cakes, reminiscing and a little gentle dancing. Invitations to former members will be sent out in due course and more information will be given nearer the time but in the meantime if you have some photographs, cuttings or memories that you would like to share please contact one of the committee.

More information about this event will be available soon – watch this space!

Reading St Andrew’s Scottish Dancing Society runs classes on a Tuesday evening which are suitable for people who have never done any Scottish country dancing. It is fun and sociable. You do not need a partner, but of course are welcome to bring one!

Come and try it – your first class is free! Classes started on 4 September 2018 but it is not too late to join.

Classes are held from 8.00pm till 10pm in the lower hall of St Andrews United Reformed Church, Reading, Berkshire, UK – RG1 5BD  – (enter from the car park in Craven Road at the door furthest from the road).
