Glenkens Community Arts Trust looking for additional members as it looks to push forward action plan

The steering group taking forward the first ever Glenkens and District Community Action Plan is seeking additional members.

The plan – published in 2020 – lays out agreed priorities over the years ahead for the Glenkens and surrounding area.

The nine-strong group’s job is to review progress and make new proposals if some actions fall short.

It also seeks to ensure the plan remains up-to-date and relevant as communities change.

The Glenkens Community Arts Trust (GCAT) is leading and supporting implementation of the action plan.

The steering group is growing – and currently has five places available.

GCAT executive manager Helen Keron said: “This is a really exciting time for the Glenkens district as we start to look to the future again and GCAT is very pleased to be part of it.

“I look forward to working with the steering group to start making real progress against the community action plan and start seeing the ambitions of the area come to reality.”

The action area takes in the core of the Glenkens but also goes down both sides of Loch Ken as far as Bridge of Dee.

It also takes in Corsock and Kirkpatrick Durham.

Anyone wishing to find out more can visit www.glenkenstrust.org.uk/get-involved.

Alternatively, contact interim steering group chair Fiona Smith for an informal chat about the role on Fiona.smith1@btinternet.com.

Deadline for applications February 28.
