Step 2: Workshops

The results of the Community Views surveys and conversations have given many threads, which when stitched together can create a Community Plan setting out our aspirations for the next decade.

Before we get to that stitching, there are some big challenges the community will face in the next decade that need to be considered. These challenges will form the agenda for November’s Community Plan workshops.

Doune Workshop

7:30pm–9:00pm

Thursday 10th November 2022

Rural Hall, Northlea, Doune

Deanston Workshop

7:30pm–9:00pm

Tuesday 15th November 2022

If you couldn’t make it to any of the events, you’ve not missed out. Use the links below to see all the presentation sheets and use the feedback form to share your point of view on the different topics.

The challenges on the agenda:

Community Action

  • Supporting volunteering for community action

Development

  • What can be done with old Kilmadock church
  • Future housing needs

Energy

  • How our energy sources are decarbonised

Future Deanston

  • What to do now Deanston Shop has closed
  • Improving playparks and greenspaces
  • Ideas for Community Centre activities

Parking in Doune

  • Solving parking issues in the village

Public Transport

  • How we get a bus connection to Dunblane

Roads

  • Changes to make roads safer

Walking & Cycling

  • Preferred location for a footbridge over the Teith
  • Priority for path improvements

These are not all the challenges we’ll face over the next decade, or everything that will be included in the new community plan. However, finding consensus on as many of these as possible puts us in a stronger position to deliver action.

Results from the workshops, and online feedback form, were used to inform a draft version of the plan.
