Ulster-Scots Community Network

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Ulster-Scots Community Network, previously known as the Ulster-Scots Heritage Council,[1] was established in 1995 as an umbrella organisation to represent the Ulster Scots community.[2] The organisation, which is based in Belfast,[3] is registered as a charity with the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland.[4] It is involved in "highlight[ing] the significant contribution of the Ulster-Scots community to the development of life in Northern Ireland, the border counties of the Republic of Ireland, and the wider Ulster-Scots diaspora",[5] and has published a number of works on Ulster-Scots history.[6][7] In 2023/2024, the organisation received most of its funding from the Ulster-Scots Agency (£408,000) and Arts Council of Northern Ireland (£33,800), and expended approximately £300,000 on salaries and staffing costs.[8]
