Scotland

Support for Action Medical Research stretches the length and breadth of Scotland.  From The Borders to the Highlands and Islands, from the major cities to the small towns and the great outdoors.  There is so much to get involved with, a lively and vibrant mix of fundraising opportunities and research!

Fundraising – something for everyone

We also have more than 35 active event groups running a whole range of fundraising activities including;

  • Music days
  • Coffee mornings
  • Bridge tournaments
  • Fashion shows
  • Dinners and antique valuations

Volunteering

If you would like to attend, support an event, make new friends, are interested in organizing your own event or just simply want to find out a bit more about us then we’re ready to help.

We are always looking for new volunteers keen to help us in some way or another.

How you help will depend on how much time you have to spare and what you like to do!

Everyone has skills they can offer that might help us in raising more money for research in Scotland.  Alternatively you can join a local group, run your own event with family or friends, or simply take part in one of our varied activities.

Perhaps you would like to speak for us at any number of events or simply distribute posters and magazines to local doctors and dentists surgeries or even consider introducing us to your contacts who may be able to help us in a whole host of ways.

Please contact a member of our team in Scotland, Janet Balcombe or Cecilia Cooper.
