Secretary Abbie McGillivray said: “The night went really well and we had a great turn out, I think there were about 190 people there.

“It was the first Burns Supper we have hosted since 2020 and it was really nice to be back to bring it back and get back into the swing of things.

“We all had a great time.”

The group celebrated with the traditional Burns supper of haggis, neeps and tatties, which was provided by A&J Catering.

Speeches were then held before people took to the floor to dance the night away to music from The Haggis Chasers Ceilidh Band, who played traditional Scots and Ceilidh music well into the night.
