02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
We were set up to promote and preserve the Ochil Hill range and we do this by monitoring planning and other developments that are being proposed for within the Ochils. We monitor planning applications submitted to the relevant local authorites (Perth & Kinross, Stirling and Clackmannanshire) and other bodies such as the ECU and Scottish Forestry. We also liaise with Community Councils as appropriate. We submit representations to relevant bodies when we consider it necessary.
