SWRI is a national organisation and, as such, is managed and administered by our Headquarters in Edinburgh.

The other staff posts are Finance Officer, Assistant Finance Officer, two Committee Secretaries (one for Education and International and one for Handcrafts and Housewives), Magazine Editor and two Administrative Assistants (both part time).
