COMMUNITY Community Fund Our community is very important to Royal Dornoch and we take our role within it seriously. In 2015 the Council of Management decided that a percentage of the income generated would be invested in the local community. Local organisations & groups (within the IV25 postcode) can apply for donations of up to £500. The applications are determined by a committee which includes the Club Captain, Vice Captain and Immediate Past Captain as well as two nominees from the Dornoch Area Community Council. Royal Dornoch donations for 2019 totalled £11,000 and helped 25 different worthy causes. Since 2015 we have donated money to over 80 different projects, helping over 45 different causes and bringing the total amount to be donated in the community to over £50,000. Captain’s Charity Each year at the Captain’s Invitational Members & Guest and the Captain’s Weekend there are raffles and auctions to raise money for the nominated charities of the captains. These raise between £5,000 to £10,000 each year which is then passed on to help the very important work of these organisations. Charities that have been supported in recent years have been Oversteps Care Home, Scotland’s Charity Air Ambulance, Chest Heart and Stroke Scotland. Currently we are supporting Kayleigh’s Wee Stars and Maggie’s. Charity Donations In addition to the above, the club makes many ad hoc donations to lots of local and national charities and causes. These usually take the form of a 4 ball on the Championship Course which are highly prized by many and can generate useful funds. We also help out in the local Dornoch Community by offering the resources from our staff, equipment and facilities. Salt Marsh Regeneration Salt Marshes provide important habitat for a wide range of wildlife and helps protect coastal land from flooding and erosion. However, shoreline degradation and climate change are increasingly placing these grassland areas under threat. A number of gaps in the saltmarsh habitat in the Dornoch Firth means part of the Royal Dornoch’s Struie Course is vulnerable to flooding and even being lost to the power of the waves. Royal Dornoch, since 2018, committed to providing £10,000 a year, for 3 years towards a project of restoring the saltmarshes. This project is being organised and promoted by Dr Clare Maynard, a research scientist at St Andrews University 29
