Our Community Fund now has a significant sum to invest after several good years of generation. Following discussions at the last two Torrs Hydro AGMs we are very keen to have wider involvement in giving a steer and making recommendations about how the fund is to be used.

As a first step we are therefore inviting our members, volunteers and some wider community representatives to take part a half-day facilitated workshop to explore ideas and options:

๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Saturday 22 November 2025
