Andy Wightman Is in Town

We at The Stove are feeling a bit like all our Christmases have come at once – so many of our favourite people are in town… today sees the arrival of Andy Wightman!


Many of you will know Andy as ‘Scotland’s foremost land rights campaigner’ – but he is so much more than that – a genuine polymath, Mr. Wightman is one of the most inspirational speakers on the subject of how everyone can change the world by getting involved in the places that are important to them.

Most recently, Andy Wightman appeared in Anthony Baxter’s documentary about Donald Trump’s controversial golf course in Aberdeen – You’ve Been Trumped.



Andy will be speaking on the ‘Political Geography of Scotland’s Commons’ on Friday at The Stove.
