Tom Weir Statue Campaign

The Tom Weir Statue Campaign, launched in February 2012, is aiming to raise around £50,000 for a bespoke sculpture of the late Scottish climber and much loved TV presenter. His centenary in December 2014 is earmarked for installation of the statue near to where Tom lived in the National Park.
For those that are too young to remember, Tom was best known for his long-running STV show Weir’s Way, as well as his trademark woolly red hat and fair-isle jumper.  He was also an active campaigner for the protection of the Scottish environment and the first recipient of the John Muir Award for Lifetime Achievement.

Tom passed away in July, 2006 and is buried in the grounds of Kilmaronock Parish Church, near Drymen.
