The Aim of the Society is to cultivate a spirit of friendship among members of the Clan and to help them to keep in touch with one another. Many of us have left our native Scotland and dispersed into all corners of Britain and the World. The Society brings us together again to share in our common ancestry and our rich exciting history.
"Stand Fast Craig Elachie" is the slogan of the clan. This refers to the prominent hilltop at the back of Aviemore known as Craigellachie. It has a commanding position with a view down the length of Upper Strathspey, and was the area where most of the clan would have lived.
For this reason it is believed to have been used as a site for a beacon to provide a warning or raising the clan, by lighting a fire on the summit. The Clan Crest uses this image of the burning beacon.
Members of the Grant Clan traditionally wear a red and green tartan, and the official clan badge is a sprig of Scots Pine, which can be worn at Clan Gatherings.
Our Clan Chief is The Rt. Hon Sir James Grant of Grant, The 6th Lord Strathspey, Baronet of Nova Scotia, 33rd Chief of Clan Grant.
