Interpretative panels & Clan identification signs

A clear thing we can do in Scotland is identify historic sites and re-introduce the footprint within clan lands.

Not only will that serve to share our heritage, encourage preservation and impart our relevance; it will forge links to local stakeholders and encourage tourism.

And so, we are initiating the first major fundraising project for CBSI: Interpretative panels & Clan identification signs

The initial aim is to install 25+ signs on significant Clan Buchanan sites, that both identity and educate the sites, BUT ALSO promote our involvement in Scottish heritage.

More than that, we hope that other Clans follow suit (not the least of which is because many sites share a history between several clans, over time) and all of Scotland re-learns Clan history.

To make this project even more successful, we will need

• heaps of information about sites and towns; history and culture

• A stand-alone website or App for more information

• Government grants and funding

• Landholder approvals and permissions

• Sponsorship and local business involvement

To do this, Clan Buchanan has created a Not-For-Profit organisation in Scotland : the Clàr-Innis Foundation, with the aim of developing these artistic projects in Scotland
