This weekend is the first Imagination: Scotland’s Festival of Ideas residential weekend in collaboration with Electoral Reform Society Scotland. It brings together discussions about ideas, culture and politics in a non-partisan way and follows on from the Changin Scotland weekends run by Gerry Hassan in the Ceilidh Place, Ullapool for over a decade.The event is being held in the wonderful setting of Wiston Lodge, near Biggar, an atmospheric country house (photo above) with extensive grounds, and friendly hospitality and home cooking.
There will be a honesty bar on Friday and Saturday night, and a bookstall over the weekend.
