  • KCC AGM Postponed

    A new date will be set for the New Year.

  • Inchmore School Canteen survey

    The 7th Inverness Scouting Group has been offered the opportunity to acquire the land currently siting the old school canteen in Inchmore for community use. The Scouting Group is considering the option to buy the land, to demolish the existing building (as it is not fit for use) and to design and build a new structure to offer a number of community uses, including storage for Scout Group equipment (which the Scout Group does not have at present).

    This survey of community opinion regarding this opportunity for an additional asset for community use will be central to the Scout Group decision-making on whether to proceed with considerable fund-raising efforts to purchase the land and build upon it.

  • Pitch Project Update

    The aim of the Pitch Project is to refurbish the waterlogged, rutted and unplayable Community Centre Pitch to make it usable again for everyone in the community.

    We have been fund-raising locally for the last couple of years with the 100+ Club (contact christinerebeg@hotmail.co.uk if you’d like to join) and some Community Quiz Nights.

    We’ve held an Open Meeting to find out people’s views and are developing a working partnership with Inverness City Football Club (Junior Scottish League).

    If we can raise the substantial funds needed via grant applications to refurbish the pitch we can give them a permanent home in Kirkhill. Their expertise and rent for the use of the Pitch for training and matches will ensure we can keep the Pitch in good condition, once it is repaired.

    Please contact the Kirkhill Community Group (names and numbers available on Community Centre Notice Board) if you can help or wish to make a donation.

    Thanks.
