Our Community

DSC00111One thing that truly sets Fraserburgh apart is the strong sense of community apparent in residents of all ages and walks of life. There is a thriving collection of local groups covering everything from sports, music, drama, crafts, the environment, dance, religion, support, charities and social groups.

If you have time to spare and want to get involved in a new hobby, are going through a tough time in your life and would benefit from the support of others or even if you just want to regularly get together with likeminded people you will find ample opportunity in the area.

For young people, there are a variety of playgroups and for older children and teens, youth groups surrounding sports giving individuals the chance to try out golf, football, swimming and diving to name a few. There are also a number of church groups, the cadets and scouts have a local presence and the Junior Arts Society is the perfect choice for any budding actors and actresses out there.
