Lord Cornet Elect Edward Pringle is a former Beaver Scout Leader with 2nd Lanark Scouts, through which he was first introduced to Lanimer life by supporting the Lowland Games, a connection further deepened by his current role on the Lanimer Committee as Castlebank Convenor.
He has worked with children and young people as a Pupil Support Assistant at Lanark Grammar School, and now at St Mary’s Primary School.
He has ridden throughout the Borders as part of the Lanark Riding Association.
