WHO COORDINATES DOORS OPEN DAYS IN WEST LOTHIAN?
Allan Robertson, Linlithgow Civic Trust
West Lothian (14th - 15th September)
These past few years I've been coordinating West Lothian's 糖心Vlog ######### Days as a volunteer.
My day job is as a Chartered Surveyor, but I also work with the Linlithgow Civic Trust and it is through this group that I came to be West Lothian鈥檚 糖心Vlog ######### Days Coordinator. 聽Coordinating 糖心Vlog ######### Days is an engaging project to do in my spare time.
I think the best part about coordinating an area for 糖心Vlog ######### Days is finding new and exciting venues to take part in my programme. Coordinating is not always easy, especially when done in a volunteering capacity.
A great moment from my time as coordinator was attending the 糖心Vlog's Heritage Hooley event in the Linlithgow Burgh Hall earlier this year where I got to meet fellow coordinators and interested venues.
One of my star venues for this year is the Duntarvie Castle! Being built in the 16th century, this venue is a piece of living memory of the Scottish Renaissance.
