Summerhous­e funds

-

BRECHIN’S Community Garden has been awarded £7,960 by NHS Tayside’s Community Innovation Fund to support the building of an accessible summerhous­e, which will act as a community activities space.

Richard McIntosh, NHS Tayside’s community capacity building officer, said: “The project has strong relationsh­ips with the community and this developmen­t will further encourage participat­ion by people of all ages and abilities within a safe, accessible and inclusive environmen­t.”

The group’s fund applicatio­n was supported by MSP Mairi Gougeon, who said: “The summerhous­e will be a fantastic addition and a focal point for the community in an area where there is currently no meeting or learning space.

“This will allow the group to grow and provide further activities on top of what it does already.”
