Little did I know it would lead to meeting a great bunch of people (and has certainly added to my skill set) and knowing a a few simple grass cuts would put the Priory on the map!

Time to meet our next Committee member - Stephen Smith. If you are down at the Priory, you'll probably see him there.. I am one of the Outdoor Team. I joined a few years ago as am local and knew I had something to offer the group.
Are you a local community group that 👇
🍽 Helps people access food?
😊 Improves people's mental wellbeing?
🤝 Provides opportunities for young people?
Applications for @coopuk's Local Community Fund open on 4 May.

It would be great to keep the memory of all those links through the Priory.

Thanks to https://t.co/LnK9qO7pkj for taking our photos and to @Logoscarluke for working with us on our FOCP branded polo shirts and fleeces.
Up next to be introduced from the FOCP committee is Marie Lockhart Michlová..... As an historian, I've been involved with the Cambusnethan Priory campaign from the very beginning in 2014. I am about to finish my PhD in British 19th-century history this year.
My long term interest in Sir Walter Scott led me to discover all the links between Scottish Romanticism and Lanarkshire heritage. Scott's son-in-law and fellow author J.G. Lockhart was born at the Cambusnethan Manse, near the Priory.
A lover of all things outdoors and passionate about seeing the priory used as a positive outdoor space and recreation area.'

Time to meet the next member of the FOCP committee ... Graham Butt. 'I've been a committee member for a few years now. I have a deep passion for our local heritage, especially the old mansion estates and the history surrounding them.
How far will our fleeces and polo shirts travel? This one is being very proudly worn by Jeanette from Grimsby. Originally from Wishaw Jeanette got in touch and ordered one of our new fleeces. Thank you for your support Jeanette. #saveourpriory
Next up on the introductions to our FOCP Committee Members is Angela McCarthy ... Angela joined the team in April 2020 after stumbling upon the Facebook page, after a friend posted a photo of their lockdown walk.
There is a vast amount of Scottish history links to the priory and we need to be protecting this for our future generations. We’ve also engaged local councillors and our MSP to get them behind our project.
