Current projects at RCT
Here is an overview of the work we are currently undertaking to help improve quality of life in our community.
The CornerStone
Launching in Spring 2025, The CornerStone – Formerly know as ‘The Hub’ will be launch as a multi-purpose venue with bar, restaurant and flexible office space.
Affordable Housing
Rannoch Community Trust (RCT) and the Dunalastair Estate have been working in partnership over the last couple of years to look at the potential for developing a site in Kinloch Rannoch for residential housing including houses for affordable rent and sale.
We are proposing to develop part of the field to build 12 community owned houses for affordable rent and low-cost home ownership (LCHO) with a further 7 houses being built for Dunalastair Estate for private rent or open market sale.
Community-Led Care Project - Update
We are working with consultants, SKS Scotland, to explore care-service delivery models for Rannoch & Tummel. This work is funded by the Perth and Kinross Council Community Led Local Development Fund (CLLD).
Living in Rannoch and Tummel, we don’t have good access to care at home services. The Rannoch Community-Led Care Project is looking at innovative ways to meet our local care needs. We have a great opportunity to create something that will work for our community and enhance the lives of our family, friends and neighbours.
The project began in January 2024. Rannoch Community Trust and Dunkeld, Birnam and District Community Development Trust have collaborated to co-create an innovative community-led approach to provide a range of social care services for our communities.
The two community trusts have provided a detailed business plan to PKC Health and Social Care Partnership and are awaiting a response to their request for investment to enable the new organisation to be up and running in 2025-26.
Progress Report:
SKS are holding events on Wednesday 5th March to give a short summary of the progress that has been made, explain the model for care-delivery which has been co-created, and to talk about next steps.
When and where:
>> Wednesday 5th March, 10.30 to 11.30am: Coffee Morning at Kinloch Rannoch Village Hall
>> Wednesday 5th March, 2 to 3pm: Coffee Afternoon at Georgetown Hall, Bridge of Gaur
>> Wednesday 5th March, 6.30-7.30pm: Evening Drop-In Event at Kinloch Rannoch Village Hall
All welcome! Everyone is encouraged to attend and find out more about what progress has been made. Your contribution and feedback is valuable to us.
By working together, we can create a strong support system that enables people to stay at home, if it is their wish to do so. We firmly believe that if we don’t take on this responsibility, our community will continue to receive insufficient support.
Together, lets create a supportive network that ensures everyone can live gracefully in the place they call home.
