The Comrie Foundation will raise funds to support local projects and groups to create a sustainable future for our village and act as a beacon for others across the country.

Comrie is rising to the challenges of the 21st century to create a truly sustainable future. We are looking at how we become more self-sufficient; how we move about; how we provide energy and food; how we provide workspace for people who can fix things; how we entertain ourselves and look after each other. In other words, how we build a resilient community.

We are proud that our government have just passed the most the world leading Climate Change (Scotland) Bill and we believe local communities have an important role to play in delivering this ambitious legislation. With targets to reduce emissions by at least 80% by 2050 this will drive new thinking, new solutions and new technologies putting Scotland at the forefront of building a low carbon economy.

Comrie will lead the way for local community action showing how a low carbon future need not be hair shirts, cold porridge and carrier pigeons. A low carbon future can be about vibrant, resilient and healthy communities.
