What's on in Rutherglen

Lanarkshire, Scotland

Rutherglen sits in Lanarkshire with a calm rhythm that suits both quiet evenings and lively gatherings. Saint Columbkille's Parish Hall has been hosting community events for years, often filling up before anyone realises they've forgotten their coats. It is the sort of place where neighbours drop by to chat while waiting for the next show to start. From family fun days to local markets, the town keeps things moving without ever feeling rushed. You can find everything from a craft stall to an open mic night within easy reach. Near Here gathers these bits and pieces so you don't have to hunt through a dozen websites on a Sunday afternoon.

Netherlee and Stamperland Church Monday Lunch Club

Who We Are The Monday Lunch Club has been running for 10 years and was started by Niall Illingworth. We meet every Monday from 11:00 AM to around 1:30 PM. We are a not-for-profit group, which means we don’t make money from our activities. To help cover the cost of food, heating, and transport, we ask each member to pay £5 per week. Our club is run by kind, fully vetted, volunteers who all have experience working with older adults and contribute their time to help keep things running smoothly. Who Can Join? Our members are people who have early-stage dementia or are experiencing some memory loss. They can be referred by family, friends, local residents, church members, or social services. We usually have 12-15 members at a time, but we currently have space for more. To join, a family member or carer fills out a short form with emergency contact details, medical information, and some fun facts about the new member—like their hobbies, past jobs, and favourite holidays. This helps our volunteers start friendly conversations. Getting Here The club is held at Netherlee and Stamperland Church. The main entrance is on Ormonde Avenue, and there is wheelchair access at the side entrance on Ormonde Drive. There are also accessible toilets available. We offer pick-up and drop-off for members who live close to the church, but some families prefer to bring their loved one themselves.
