What next for Friends of John Muir’s Birthplace

What Next for the Friends of John Muir’s Birthplace?

Today at 7pm!  Register here on eventbrite.

Duncan Smeed, Convener of Friends of John Muir’s Birthplace said, ‘This is a public event and not just for the members of the Friends of John Muir’s Birthplace. Indeed, it is hoped that as many people as possible can join in the Zoom call and contribute their ideas and thoughts about What Next?’

A ‘What If?’ event organised by the Friends of John Muir’s Birthplace in conjunction with Sustaining Dunbar.

Join us to discuss:

• What role does John Muir’s Birthplace play in the life of the town and the High Street?

• What can we learn from John Muir’s life and legacy to support and inspire us?

• What role for the Birthplace in supporting the transition to a better future for all of us?

Friends of John Muir’s Birthplace is a local charity that supports the ongoing work of the John Muir Birthplace Charitable Trust and the staff of John Muir’s Birthplace.

Learn about the work and achievements of the Friends of John Muir’s Birthplace (founded in 1994 as Dunbar’s John Muir Association) in advancing its aims of:

• educating the public concerning John Muir and his belief in the unique and irreplaceable value of wild places and wild creatures

• implementing John Muir’s philosophy practically by conserving, restoring and enhancing landscape and wildlife in East Lothian and Scotland

and discuss ‘What Next?’.

Following the discussion and conclusion to the main event there will be a very short Friends of John Muir’s Birthplace AGM to conduct the formal business of the charity in order to comply with the requirements of OSCR.
