A Space for Living

Over the past two years, in consultation with the community, we have developed an action plan, A Space for Living, designed to tackle a range of transport, road safety and environmental concerns within Balfron. On Saturday 12 May, we held a very successful Street Event in Buchanan Street to display the work done so far. We had wonderful weather and a great turn-out from the community. As well as the main exhibition in Doyle’s Café, we had pop-up stalls around Buchanan Street, promoting the work of Incredible Edibles Balfron, The Pathways Group, and the War Memorial Crowdfunding Appeal. You can find out more about the background to A Space for Living here. And here are the plans for Buchanan Street that were on display: SfL Exhibition Boards

They will be exhibited again in Balfron Library from Monday 28 May, where there will also be Comment Sheets and Pledge Cards where you can tell us your thoughts, and how you might be able to support our work as we take this exciting venture to the next stage.

War Memorial Fund

The work to stabilise and conserve our war memorial was completed in August 2018. Thanks to everyone who supported this work.
