Qui sommes-nous?

As the office Creative, I work closely with all members of the team (as well as Branches and Groups) to create engaging artwork that promotes Scottish Country Dance worldwide. I’m passionate about evolving and modernising our brand through digital, print and product development.

I started my working career as a bookseller and then as a publishing assistant. I now enjoy my role here in retail and membership services. I manage the RSCDS shop, but also assist the Membership Services Committee and the Editorial team in their various projects. I also process Branch awards and membership renewals.

My role as the Office Manager is to ensure the smooth and efficient running of the RSCDS Office. Reporting to the Chairman and Board, I lead the staff in providing a high level of service to RSCDS members and branches.

I am an ACCA affiliate, currently working towards becoming a Certified Accountant. As part of my diverse role I look after the day-to-day finances at the RSCDS, from dealing directly with suppliers, to the preparation and analysis of budgets and quarterly Management Accounts. I also administer funding applications for JMMF and the Development Fund.

I am responsible for RSCDS event management including Summer School, Winter School, AGM and Spring Fling. I also currently support the Education and Training Committee.

Alan Macpherson is the Honorary Archivist for the RSCDS .

In my professional life I am a primary school teacher and so have regular up to date training and experience in Child Wellbeing and Protection.
