It was lovely to welcome staff and trustees from Wick Development Trust to Kirkcaldy on Saturday, alongside Colin from Kirkcaldy Property Network.

We had some really interesting conversations about town centre regeneration, community ownership and the opportunities and challenges facing our towns. We also enjoyed showing them around Greener Kirkcaldy, sharing some of the work we’re doing and hearing about the exciting projects underway in Wick.

There’s so much we can learn from other communities and development trusts, and it’s always inspiring to exchange ideas and experiences with people working to make their towns better places to live and visit.

Thanks to everyone who made the long journey down from Wick - we hope to repay the visit soon!
