02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
The Evanton Community Trust is a charitable body which was set up in 2005 to undertake major local projects designed to develop new and improve or preserve existing community assets for the benefit of the community in and around Evanton in Ross-shire in the Highlands of Scotland. The Trust is registered in Scotland as a charitable company and its vision is 'to see a robust, inclusive and thriving community in Evanton where people are proud to work and live' The Trust’s first project was to acquire and convert a brown-field site in the centre of the village into a Village Green with landscaping and planting. The Trust has upgraded the footpaths from Lower Balconie and Kiltearn along the shore. More recently, the Trust has taken on ownership of the Diamond Jubilee Hall and manages it on behalf of the Community. The long term aim is to upgrade the hall to make it an even more vital part of our community.
