Freuchie Flood Action Group

Freuchie Community Council has issued a leaflet to everyone in Freuchie with information on the “Community Development Body” proposed for the village. Hopefully no one got missed in Freuchie.

They are looking for people to take this proposal forward, to build the business structure and to be involved in the delivery of sustainable community projects. A free workshop session, run by the Development Trust Association, has been organised for 6:30pm on Wednesday 29th July at Freuchie Cricket Club. Please fill in the tear off slip on the leaflet if you wish to find out more about the training and how you can participate in bring this body to life.

A public meeting to discuss legal entities capable of delivering community projects will be held at 7pm on the 17th June 2009 at Freuchie Cricket Club. Everyone is welcome to attend.

Tom Black of the Development Trust Association will be delivering a presentation on possible legal structures and be available to answer questions from members of the public who are interested.

Cllr Andrew Arbuckle, Chairman of Newburgh Community Trust, will also be talking about the experience of setting up and operating a community group.

It should be stressed that this is much more than just about flooding. We are looking to set-up a legal structure to deliver all manner of community projects with a wide ranging remit and scope to serve Freuchie  and beyond.  

This is a joint meeting organised by Freuchie Community Council and Freuchie Flood Action Group.
