A word from Colmonell Community Association - Action Plan Subgroup
Welcome to the 2020-2025 Colmonell Community Action Plan! Over the last three years - thanks to a significant and sustained community effort - our village has gone from strength to strength. We have a huge range of activities in the hall, a thriving youth club, a community garden, a revamped play area, and community-owned public toilets amongst many others. We are a community endowed with significant assets including a fantastic community hall, beautiful natural environment, and an excellent primary school to mention just a few. Most of all we are blessed with a vibrant, welcoming, and strong community.
This plan aims to build on previous successes and create a bright future for Colmonell. During the Covid-19 crisis we saw how the community pulled together to overcome the challenges of the lockdown. One of the objectives of this action plan is to ensure that Colmonell makes a strong recovery from the impacts of the pandemic.
Our plan is ambitious, and we will work collaboratively with Colmonell and Stinchar Valley community organisations, local businesses, South Ayrshire Council, local partners, and funding organisations to deliver it. We will also need the skills, knowledge, and experience of all Colmonell community members to bring the plan to life. Please get in touch if you would like to help!
Finally, Colmonell Community Association would like to thank all those who gave up their time to take part in the initial engagement which forms the basis of this plan. We hope that the plan reflects the aspirations we have for our community.
