Welcome to the DDPS Website

Dundee & District Philatelic Society is a local society (founded in 1905) and is the second oldest society in Scotland. It is devoted to the collecting and study of philately and meets regularly between September and April each year. Do you have an interest in Stamp Collecting, Postal History or any other branch of philately?, then why not come along to one of our meetings and meet other people interested in the same hobby. Our current membership stands at 33, the majority of whom attend most of our meetings. Society meetings take place usually on the 2nd and 4th Thursdays of each month at 7:30pm at Dundee Art Society, Roseangle Gallery. You can see details of our latest syllabus below.
We also hold informal meetings on the 1st Thursday of each month between 10:00am and 12:00am at Roseangle
