Applicants Wanted! Community Action Plan project

[SKDT]

The South Kintyre Development Trust is looking for local people to help develop Community Action Plans in the South Kintyre area (Campbeltown, East Kintyre, the Laggan, Southend and West Kintyre). This project is a crucial part of the trusts efforts to create community action plans in each of the 5 community council areas that make up South Kintyre.

We are looking to form a representative group for each area to help develop these plans and would love to hear from anyone (young or old, new to the area or born and bred local) who is interested. If you do chose to get involved there will be a series of activities to help with:

*Community Profiling - a desktop audit of the community, past and present;
*Surveys and Interviews - to find out where the community wants to be in 5-10 years time
*Establishing Priorities - taking the survey/interview results to the public and establishing which is the most important to them
*Action planning - creating a practical and logical plan that will help meet the communities priorities.

There will be the opportunity to get involved in as much or as little of the project as you see fit but as a minimum we would expect you to attend meetings of the group. As part of the project there will be optional free training in community development provided.

This is a chance to have your say on your communities future, don't miss out.

Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions.
