Friends of Dundee Law

Friends of Dundee Law is a new group and is part of the Dundee Law Heritage Project. This is a two year Heritage Lottery/Dundee City Council funded project aiming to physically improve the infrastructure of Dundee Law as well as increase community involvement at the site.

The Friends Group is currently supported by Dundee City Council, but may become an independent voice for users and volunteers of the Law.

There is a part-time Community Participation Officer employed until 2018 to help develop community use and involvement in the Law.

Volunteers can become involved in

  1. the Friends of the Law meetings or
  2. practical projects carrying out research into the fascinating history of the Law or
  3. practical projects helping to look after the Law’s landscape and biodiversity
  4. carrying out biodiversity surveys finding out what wildlife lives on the Law.

There are regular practical conservation sessions where tools and training are provided.
