Local Groups

The RSGS has 13 local groups across Scotland. These groups are run by volunteers who man the Inspiring People talks and who help with local publicity, promotion and fundraising activities. Some local groups also arrange extra events, such as additional talks (Travellers’ Talks), guided walks, or coach trips.

Anyone is welcome to come to our talks and events, and our groups are always keen for new volunteers to assist. Please get in touch if you would like to help.

To learn more about the local events in your area, or to volunteer with your local group, please contact us on [email protected] or 01738 455050.
