Once again, John indicated to Roseanna Cunningham MSP, Minister of the Environment, that our invite to visit Freuchie was still open. It looks like our previous in person invite has been misplaced due to administrative changes in her team. An official invite is now winging its way towards Parliament. We’ll keep you updated on the Minister’s future visit.

Freuchie Flood Action Group would like to thank Freuchie Community Council for funding the place for our Chairman at this event.
