Membership
The NCCSS is an independent body mainly composed of representatives from Scottish national bodies (see below). Meeting three times a year, we provide a forum for the exchange of information among members and their organizations. We aim to enable a better understanding of the issues affecting carved stones and to facilitate collective efforts to address them. Drawing on our wide range of interests and expertise, we seek to identify and spread good practice, and to inform and hence influence institutional policy and strategy.
Please see NCCSS documents for our Annual Reports and other information about the Committee and its work.
