UPPER TAY COMMUNITY TRANSPORT HUB LAUNCH
We are delighted to invite you to the launch and opening of the Upper Tay Community Transport Hub on Friday 18th June from 3 – 4.30.
As you may know, Upper Tay Transport is working to improve transport in the area, both for the benefit of our community and environment. We are developing and running a number of projects to achieve this. The Community Transport Hub is part of this, providing information, support, a base for all our projects including Community Lifts, our volunteer driver scheme, a future community bus service and our community bike loan service. The Hub is based in the Locus Centre, the Square, Aberfeldy and is currently open Monday to Friday 10am – 2pm.
The launch and opening will be held in the Square and in the Hub so we can manage numbers of people in the building appropriately. Tea, coffee and cakes will be provided outside.
We hope you are able to come along to find out more about the Upper Tay Transport project. The event is open to the public so do bring along anyone who might be interested.

Community Empowerment
It is more and more apparent that we as a Community need to change our approach if we want PKC to take us seriously.
Community Empowerment is there to help us.
Participation Requests provide an opportunity for people and groups to play a greater and more direct role in their community. A Participation Request is not a request for a service, or for information, it is a request to participate in a process to improve an outcome in our community, such as the quality of greenspaces or access to facilities.
See link below for example
