Scottish clans in Dunedin are joining together to lift the profile of Dunedin's Scottish heritage during Scottish Week. The combined group had met previously under the Clan Gunn umbrella four or five times a year, Mr Wall said. "It is important to keep the clans alive because Dunedin is a Scottish city, founded mainly by Scots people. Mr Wall called on businesses and the Dunedin City Council to support the movement to get people interested in joining the clans and take pride in their tartan. Clans active in the city were Clans Gunn, McLeod, Mackenzie, Donald and McNichol.
