Locals talk about the many opportunities to get involved in their community – the surprising number of events throughout the year, the numerous social and special interest clubs and organisations.

Want to learn tai chi in a vast manicured park? You can do that in Glen Innes Highlands. Want to socialise whilst you practice your craft? Join a group (spinners, knitters, needle pointers and more) for a regular get-together over a cup of tea.

There are a variety of cultures in Glen Innes which are celebrated by community groups and events throughout the year. The Caledonian society embraces all things European and Celtic while the local community groups run events such as harmony day to display the many cultures living in Glen Innes.
