Brora Community Council The Brora Community Council (BCC) represents the community and serves as its voice. Your voice matters, so have your say!

A voluntary body established by statute through the Local Authority, it is run by local residents to advocate for their area. Welcome to the Brora Community Council (BCC) page! We are a volunteer-led group that shares our work and discusses local issues that matter to our community. We’d love for you to be part of the conversation. Please engage respectfully and help keep this a safe and welcoming space. As we are run by volunteers, we may not always be able to respond immediately to matters raised, but we appreciate your input and engagement. The BCC is a publicly elected body representing the community of Brora and the surrounding area of Clyne Parish. Community councils are the most local tier of statutory representation in Scotland. They bridge the gap between local authorities and communities and help to make public bodies aware of the opinions and needs of the communities they represent. The Highland Council has statutory oversight of community councils and is required to consult community councils about planning applications and licensing matters.

Help shape the future of Brora and Clyne Parish

What would a strong, vibrant and resilient community look like to you?

Brora Community Council invites residents from across Clyne Parish to a Community Engagement Day to help develop our Local Place Plan.

Together, we will explore “What good looks like”: what we value about our community, what we want to protect and what we would like to improve for future generations.

What would help young people build their futures here? How could we make everyday life better for older residents? What matters most to you about housing, local businesses, transport, community spaces and our natural environment? These are starting points — we want to hear your priorities and ideas.

The Local Place Plan is an opportunity to turn those ideas into a shared vision and practical proposals. It also gives our community a voice in wider planning: once completed and registered, it must be taken into account when Highland Council prepares its Local Development Plan (Scottish Government, 2022).

You do not need planning knowledge to take part. Your experience of living here is what matters. Whether you have lived in the parish all your life or have recently made it your home, please come along and contribute.

Venue: Brora Community Centre
Date: Saturday 3rd October 2026
Time: 2pm (1400hrs)

Gina has kindly offered to provide her famous cakes and other refreshments.

Come and share what you would like the future of our community to be.
