Keeping St Andrews and the wider community active, creative, and connected.
Haydays is a Scottish registered charity (charity number SC045160) and a community organisation serving people aged 50+ in St Andrews and further afield.
For many years, we have been a cornerstone of the St Andrews and wider community, built on the simple belief that you don’t stop playing when you get old – you get old when you stop playing. Run by a dedicated committee of volunteers for over 24 years now, we are a not-for-profit organisation committed to providing a warm and welcoming space for people over 50 to learn, laugh, and live life to the full.
Membership fee is free for 75 year olds and above. Donations welcome.
Enjoy a great mix of activities, like
Salsa dancing, Stained Glass, Art, Canasta, Ukulele, Choir, Reading, Craft.
Join us most Tuesdays during term time from 9:15 – 4pm

MAHJONG is a Chinese tile game used for gambling in Asia. We play a European version of the game which is totally different. It’s a game of both luck and skill. We are a group of about 20 but beginners are most welcome and given one to one assistance for as long as needed and have the support of all other members as their game improves. Our group has been going for 10 years.
