If you are a landlord in East Lothian, find out how you can tackle the problem of damp and mould at this free lunchtime webinar.

The presentation will be followed by a Q&A, where you will have the chance to ask an expert about your own damp and mould issues.

This is a unique opportunity to step inside one of Scotland’s most ambitious community-led conservation projects and meet the professionals helping to save Bannockburn House. Throughout the day, guests will hear from the conservation architect, conservation structural engineer, and other specialists involved in the project. Each will share how they have approached the challenges of working with a fragile Category A listed building, the decisions that shape emergency conservation work, and what it is like to build a career in heritage, architecture, engineering, and traditional skills. The event is designed to be informal, engaging, and practical, with plenty of time for conversation, questions, and networking over coffee. Guests will also enjoy a guided Heritage Conservation Tour of Bannockburn House, exploring the building, its current condition, and the emergency works now underway. The tour will highlight how conservation professionals, volunteers, funders, and the wider community are working together to protect the house and bring its stories back to life. Courtesy of Stirling City Heritage Trust, the day will also include live traditional skills demonstrations, including stonemasonry and roofing, giving guests the chance to see conservation trades in action and understand the specialist craft skills needed to care for historic buildings.
