A quick round-up of what we have been up to this month.
Our AGM went really well, and we want to say a huge thank you to everyone who joined us on the night. Your support, questions and ideas genuinely shape the future work of the DDCA and we are very grateful for your input.
Behind the scenes, we have continued advocating for Dufftown, including working to ensure the community receives the best possible benefits package from local windfarm developments.
At the Clock Tower, work is moving forward. We have started clearing out the building ahead of the capital works, and we have been gathering your views through our public consultation on the ground floor space. We look forward to sharing the results with you over the coming weeks.
If you have not yet shared your thoughts, you can still take part here: https://forms.gle/otFJKg33EDvkQxfV9
We also held our third and final Warm Spaces Lunch of the year last week. These sessions have been a great success, and you can read more about the feedback and impact from our survey here: https://dufftowncommunity.co.uk/warm-spaces-lunches-feedback-and-impact/
Most people hear about the lunches through word of mouth, so please pass it on to neighbours, friends and family who might enjoy coming along. We are especially keen to reach younger generations; high chairs are available.
Our next Warm Spaces Lunch will be on Wednesday 21st January 12.00-1.30. To celebrate Burns, we will be serving Haggis, Neeps and Tatties, and vegetarian haggis will also be available.
A few bikes are still out on long-term hire, and this will continue into the spring. If you would like to borrow one, just get in touch. It might be a fun New Year challenge; couch to 50k on a bike?
Wishing you all a wonderful festive season! 🎄
