PRESS RELEASE : Community hub in Kinloch Rannoch awarded £250,000 [January 2023]

The press release issued by the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities on 17 January 2023.

A project to create a multi-use hub in Kinloch Rannoch was awarded £250,000 from the Community Ownership Fund.

The building in Perthshire was originally a school. This project will let the community repurpose a building that was financially unworkable.

Community leads the project

Rannoch Community Trust is leading an initiative to create new sustainable facilities. This will allow community activities in Kinloch Rannoch to expand in the short, medium, and long term.

The centre will be commercially viable and will include:

  • a community meeting room
  • an outlet for local produce
  • public outdoor spaces
  • a bar and restaurant

It will also provide volunteering and paid employment opportunities for local people.
