Lovely front page in this week’s Stirling Observer. The Tontine tree has come down in the gale, but our crack hit squad should have it up and secure again this afternoon.
A bit short notice, but Forth Valley Rape Crisis are holding a drop-in on consent issues in Doyle's Café this morning. We'll let you know if there are further sessions planned.
A big thank you to all who turned out for the Christmas lights switch-on, particularly our celeb switch-on-er, Jim Thomson; Carol Murphy for the Library hospitality; Kirsty More for the mince pies; Euan Duff for both marvellous trees; and of course the children of Balfron Primary School for their lovely carol singing. We hope you all have a wonderful festive season, from Balfron Community Council.
