The Scotland-Russia Forum was founded in February 2003. Its aim is to promote a clear understanding in Scotland, Russia and its neighbouring countries of each others ways of life, history, heritage, cultural and commercial activities and voluntary services and to create contacts of all kinds between the peoples of these countries. We are an independent voluntary organisation with members of all ages, both Russian and non-Russian speaking and including many Russians now living in Scotland.

Our core activities are a programme of monthly lectures, a twice yearly newsletter and regular email notification of Russian/FSU events all over Scotland. We also have parties, run business events, support film and discussion groups, have set up an affiliated Saturday Russian school for children in Edinburgh, and try to provide information and support for many other Russian/FSU activities in Scotland.

If you are interested in Russia and the FSU we should be delighted to see you at any of our functions and to receive suggestions of activities youd like to take part in. As a start why dont you join our email news service (free for the first 6 months)? Send your name and email address through our contact page.
