Scottish Community Pubs Network Zoom

The Plunkett Foundation is delighted to invite you to their next online networking event for Scottish community pub groups. This evening’s free event is funded by the Scottish Rural Network (part of the Scottish Governments Rural Development Programme) and is open to all community groups involved in a community owned pub project in Scotland whether you are at ideas stage or already open and trading.

The Scottish Land Commission is driving a programme of land reform spanning both urban and rural land, to create a Scotland where land is owned and used in ways that are fair, responsible and productive.

Land @ Lunch - How can you get involved in local land decisions?

The second instalment of the Scottish Land Commission’s popular free online webinar series has returned to coach people across Scotland on how to make the most of opportunities  with the land and buildings around them.

This year Scottish Rural Network (SRN) continue to support Community Led Local Development (CLLD) through a range of projects and activities.

One of the approaches we’ve taken is to support rural and island communities seeking to develop community assets by working in partnership with the Plunkett Foundation. Their expertise in this areas has allowed us to focus on community ownership of pubs and shops.
