The Saltire is the national flag of Scotland and, as such, differs from the Royal Standard of Scotland in that it is
the Saltire which is the correct flag for all individuals and corporate bodies to fly in order to demonstrate both
their loyalty and Scottish nationality. It is also, where possible, flown from Scottish Government buildings every
day from 8am until sunset, with certain exceptions.
The Saltire Society was established in 1936 to encourage everything that might improve the quality of life in
Scotland and restore the country to its proper place as a creative force in European civilisation.
The Society also seeks to revive the memory of famous Scots and to make the nation conscious of its heritage
and it seeks to preserve all that is best in Scottish tradition and to encourage new developments which can
strengthen and enrich the country's cultural life. It has wide ranging interests including history, literature, music,
drama, architecture and planning - and promotes excellence in many fields through a series of national awards.
