Welcome ...

. . . to the website of Dornoch and District Community Association.

We are a registered charity promoting the interests of local organisations and individuals within the Royal Burgh of Dornoch in the County of Sutherland.

Our main asset is the Dornoch Social Club (above), the largest hall in the community, which we lease from the building Trustees. The Social Club building was originally the school, but for over 50 years it has been used for diverse social and recreational purposes such as snooker & table tennis, Scouts & Cubs, meetings & jumble sales, drama & musical performances, discos & ceilidhs!

The building was refurbished in 1980 but is now suffering from old age and is need of fairly urgent attention (e.g. we have a leaky roof and walls). A recent preliminary survey estimated that in excess of £700,000 of renovation work will be required to bring the building up to current standards.

In January 2008 a new committee was elected with a common goal to provide our community with a sustainable facility for the use and enjoyment of all. We acknowledge that this task will not be easy but we are determined to provide a legacy for Dornoch.

Dornoch Model Fair raises nearly £700 for the Social Club refurbishment programme, as around 500 people attend the inaugural event!
