Thanks to Glenrinnes Community for hosting the regular TSI Moray Development Trust meeting. A great chance for our DO Alison to meet with peers from other communities, share updates and top tips!

It was a pleasure to host Edward from Third Sector Interface Moray for the Development Officer Network at GCC this morning.
We welcomed Tyred n Cranky to chat to us all about what they can offer our communities in Moray, caught up with each others projects, and chatted about funding, our roles and how we could support each other.
A great morning despite the high winds, car & tech issues, and my personal inability to look normal in a photo!

Elgin Round Table have done an amazing job bringing the raft race back to Lossie, and their community spirit continues long after the day!

Thank you so much for your generous donation to the growing project!

We're glad to have been able to support you in your journey and wish you every success with future events!

🌱 THE RAFT RACE REVIVAL — GIVING BACK TO OUR COMMUNITY! 💙

At Elgin Round Table, we’re proud that the Raft Race Revival is about more than bringing people together for a fantastic day of fun — it’s about supporting the people and projects that make our local community such a great place to live.

As part of this commitment, race organiser Will Burtt recently met with Alison Read from Lossiemouth Community Development Trust to present a cheque for £200 towards the Lossiemouth Community Garden Project! 🌻💷

The project aims to create a welcoming community growing space where people of all ages and backgrounds can come together, grow food, enjoy the outdoors and connect with others. It’s a fantastic initiative that will help bring people together and make a positive difference in Lossiemouth. 🌿🥕🌼

We’re delighted that proceeds from the Raft Race Revival can help support projects like this, contributing to a stronger, greener and more connected local community.

A huge thank you to Alison and everyone at Lossiemouth Community Development Trust for the work they do to improve our local area, and to all our sponsors, volunteers, raft crews and supporters who helped make the Revival a success.

Your support is helping us give back — and grow something good in our community! 🙌💙

👻 We know where one is hiding....! 😉

🧙‍♀️ The witches of Lossiemouth have lost some letters for their Halloween spell!

🌪 A big gust of wind has scattered the letters around Lossie! We need some trail goers to find the missing letters to help the witches to finish their spell in time for Halloween 🎃

Flyers are available from the club at £1 each. Follow the map and the clues to complete the missing words. One you've found them return your flyer to the club and collect a small prize for your efforts.

Our trail is running until Halloween.

👻 Have you got what it takes to save Halloween?

We did it! 🎉

A huge thank you to everyone who took the time to vote for this project. This result belongs to the whole community, and it takes us a big step closer to repairing the damage at West Beach and protecting access for all to our beautiful coastline.

Congratulations also to the other successful projects, and well done to everyone who put in the time and effort to submit an application to support Moray’s coastal communities.

Thanks also to Moray Council and for running the fund.

More updates to follow in due course. Thank you again!
