Strathnairn’s Community Action Plan is starting to take shape.

Please share with other residents, particularly those who do not use social media.

We are pleased to be able to announce that consultants, Impact Hub Inverness, have been appointed to carry out a Community Action Plan (CAP) for Strathnairn.

We’ve added an update of the situation in the Highlands with respect to COVID-19 from NHS Highland. It also gives information on the vaccination programme here in the Highlands. There is also information on mass testing in Grantown.

A recent survey questionnaire was sent out to each Community Group within the Strath. A couple of these e-mails do appear to have gone into people’s ‘junk’ folder. We are excited to see some of the responses start to come back. However, if you are in a group and you are not sure your groupContinue reading “Community Survey”

We have now got our own web address! So, from that we now are creating a new website (which can be a wee bit fiddly to say the least). At the moment, is is a work in progress. We could have just set it as a ‘Coming Soon’ but we also wanted to have itContinue reading “Website building”
