Our Team and What We Do

The Ulster-Scots Agency consists of a small team dedicated to promoting the study, conservation, development and use of Ulster-Scots as a living language; encouraging and developing the full range of its attendant culture; and promoting an understanding of the history of the Ulster-Scots.  

Our staff are also responsible for providing advice for both administrations (North/South), public bodies and other groups in the private and voluntary sector; undertaking research and promotional campaigns; and supporting projects and grant aid bodies and groups.  

Our main office is in Belfast at The Corn Exchange, 31 Gordon Street, Belfast, BT1 2LG. Our regional office in Raphoe is located at William Street, Raphoe, Co Donegal.
