We are delighted to announce that we have received £114,854 from the National Lottery Heritage Fund for a year long project focused on Gardens, Links and Digital (GLAD). The project, which will cost £120,597 in total, will start in March 2022.

​

Supported through the National Lottery Heritage Fund, Dunollie GLAD will include a packed list of activities, including adding to and upgrading Dunollie’s Historic Woodland Grounds, providing engaging activities for the local community, as well as family days out and activities for a younger age group.

​

Dunollie GLAD focusses on three main strands:

​

• Dunollie Historic Garden activity space for social distance and outdoor opportunities.

• Dunollie Links Post Covid - Community Engagement in ways which meet the needs of the new normal and

• Dunollie Digital connections taking our resource and bringing it bang up to date in the post-covid world-wide digital market place.

​

We are looking for practitioners to help with a variety of aspects of this project, including Archaeology Watching, Gazebo Construction and Plant Cataloguing.
