The Rutherglen Mortified Lunch is back in town this year following several years of absence following Covid.

Held on Monday 9 June 2025 in Rutherglen Town Hall, the free lunch event can be attended by anyone who is 70 years or older and was born and lived their lives in the Burgh (the Old Burgh Boundary).

However, if you don’t quite fit into these categories, applications will still be considered if you have lived for more than 50 years in the Burgh.

Please note only one applicant per household will be accepted.

Application forms can be collected from:

Rutherglen Town Hall, 139 Main Street, Rutherglen G73 2JJ.

Please complete and return your application to Rutherglen Town Hall by Thursday 17 April.
