A heads up to #Caithness folk… I’ll be giving a talk about my research at Castlehill Heritage Centre in Castletown next Thursday stay (28 July) at 7:30pm. Looking forward to sharing insights from my work in communities around the NC500. Please come along and spread the word!

I found biotite inside a book so here’s your periodic reminder that mica has perfect cleavage! You can do this & it’s very satisfying but also gets glitter everywhere. In some languages (inc. German, Danish & Swedish) mica is called glimmer & I love that so much 🖤 #mineralmonday

There's an opportunity to join the wonderful, community led team NW Highlands UNESCO Global Geopark as an Education & Engagement Officer. There's a link in their post below to get full details ⬇️ Even if it isn't the job for you make sure to share the post and help it reach the right person :)

All we want is a capital letter and a just transition.

On my way back from a really exciting visit to the North West Highlands Geopark & @WesterRossBios, with some time spent talking to the pupils at Ullapool High School and Kinlochbervie High School about what it's like to grow up in their part of the world. #SitesUnseen

It's strike day for many sectors, so just putting this out there again. People are striking because of poor pay and working conditions. The right to strike is fundamental to a fair society, yet the UK Gov wants to take that away. Do not go quietly!

A great day spent in Lairg discussing all things North & West Sutherland, (NW2045 - northwest2045.scot) especially how best to combat demographic decline & create ambitious & sustainable communities. The Highland Council HIE Former NatureScot account John Muir Trust

Hi Patrick K. Miller ! Thanks for reading out my thread for Josh to respond to on your podcast. However, Josh shared a lot of inaccurate and unfounded accusations about our research. Would you be willing to let me respond to that, so that you can show the other side of the story?

Now there’s some very creative use of The Scottish Geology Trust

Thank you to all Scottish land managers & community reps for travelling far & wide to share their aspirations for the Agriculture & Rural Communities (Scotland) Bill. Your voices are key to informing our scrutiny! Scrutiny 👉 ow.ly/q9T950QFvzl

My campaign video launch 🚀 I want to give back to the communities who have given so much to me, to give the #Highlands a greater political voice. I have campaigned long and hard for #Indy since the late 90s, for environmental causes and rural communities for decades. The SNP
