As stated on the home page basically anyone can join Crann Tara who has Scotland’s best interest at heart. What more could be asked for?
Being based in Scotland does have its difficulties, especially for those who stay in different parts of the world. For example it may seem that you being so far away you would not be able to take an active part in Crann Tara and feel it pointless even becoming a member or otherwise being involved well read on.

Alternative ways to be involved if you are Ex Patriots, or have Scottish Roots or even links to Scotland in some other way through ancestry etc, or just want to be involved with some thing of the real Scotland.
As Crann Tara is based in Scotland, you may feel it unnecessary in becoming a member if you reside out with the country as you probably feel you could not be actively involved, WRONG!! There are other ways in which you can become involved, perhaps you are part of a Clan group or Society, or even involved with something which is related to Scotland or Scottishness in some other way, whatever the case Crann Tara have on the website a links page and are always looking for good links or support with like minded people. We also have a page for business promotion, with the revenues being used to advance the progress of Crann Tara with their aims and objectives. By becoming involved with Crann Tara we hope that this will create closer bonds and friendships across the seas and giving you a link with the real Scotland as well.
Details at the foot of the page give assistance to the relevant person to contact.

Business Promotions
As Crann Tara are concerned in the preserving of the history, culture and heritage of Scotland we would ideally like to only promote businesses who are similar to this cause. Realistically we know that businesses of this kind are few and far between, so our horizons stretch to a far broader scale to that of businesses who are linked to or at least believe in what we are doing.
The promotion of business doesn't neccessarily even need to have the boundaries of being Scottish based, with the availability of internet access the world is open to all. So if you would like to promote your business on our Business Promotions Page, please contact the Treasurer to discuss the matter further, details can be found below.
