02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
We are a local community group that was set up in 2009 to help Cupar become a thriving, environmentally friendly town. Sustainable Cupar was incorporated as a SCIO in 2011. The group aims to raise awareness of green issues and to promote and support changes to more sustainable lifestyles. We have sub-groups that concentrate on different themes: local fruit growing (FAB), town development (planning and infrastructure), sustainable active travel (including cycling), and river restoration. Our book club meets once a month too.
