Friends of John Muir's Birthplace was originally formed in 1994 as Dunbar John Muir's Association with the aim of promoting the life and work of John Muir in Dunbar and beyond. The Association successfully campaigned for the development of a centre celebrating Muir’s vision and influence on world conservation. It is a partner in the John Muir Birthplace Trust alongside East Lothian Council, Dunbar Community Council and the John Muir Trust. Friends support John Muir’s Birthplace with a variety of events, activities and fundraising.
