  • Date lodged: Friday, 06 July 2018
  • Motion reference: S5M-13087

That the Parliament congratulates Johnshaven Heritage Hub Museum on achieving VisitScotland's three-star tourist attraction status; notes that the museum was set up by locals in the village's old lifeboat shed and houses artefacts and archival material relating to the surrounding coastal communities; understands that the museum recently connected visitors from the United States who had historic familial ties to the area to older members of the community who had memories of their family, and commends the museum for keeping local history alive and fostering a good community spirit.
