CALL OUT FOR IDEAS
WOULD YOU LIKE TO ATTEND A VARIETY OF COMMUNITY EVENTS IN SCOURIE?
DO YOU BELIEVE THAT SOCIAL EVENTS CAN HELP REDUCE STRESS AND AID WELLBEING?
AND/OR MIGHT YOU BE INTERESTED IN MAKING IT HAPPEN?
If you are aged over 16 and can answer yes to the above then we need your help
Under a partnership agreement between Scourie, Coigach, Assynt and Lochview Training Centre and with funding secured in support of community led activities, we are keen to hear from you and welcome any suggestions you might have. To date, interest has been shown in flower arranging, yoga, bee-keeping, recording and archiving local history and basket making all of which “ticks the box” BUT we need to hear from the male members of the population it could be something loosely based on the Mens Shed concept or something a bit more adventurous – e.g. a five aside football match for the over 40’s it’s entirely up to you. Please get in touch with your suggestions, in the mean-time to start things off we invite you to;
SCOURIE VILLAGE TIDY & BBQ– July 18th – litter pickers, sack and gloves provided, more information to follow.
ALSO;
In order to create an exciting variety of activities we are looking to appoint an Activities Co-ordinator, might that be you? - see below
ACTIVITIES CO-ORDINATOR (80hrs p.a. with the potential to continue in 2027)
Several of you have commented about the lack of activities available in Scourie, these things don’t organise themselves it takes volunteer effort and we thank you for giving up your time. Volunteer fatigue is well documented as being a barrier to development within small communities, in mitigation we have successfully managed to source some funding and wish to appoint a part time Activities Co-ordinator, if this flexible, interesting and occasional role is something you might be interested in and would like to join our team, we would love to hear from you. For further information on payment, hours etc please contact [email protected] or Tel; 07444806107
