The Boddam Hub [SCIO]

Constitutional objectives

The organisation's purposes are: 4.1 To provide an insight into the past, present and future of our village and local surroundings. This would in turn allow the advancement of citizenship and community development by giving residents a sense of belonging and pride in the village. 4.2.To provide an understanding of our marine wildlife. This will promote environmental protection and we will look to do activities that will improve the environment such as beach cleans and talks to educate visitors. We have already reached out to the local ranger and BDMLR who are happy to give talks on the local conservation areas and the importance of looking after them. 4.3.To create a carbon neutral prototype building in the local area. 4.4. To provide a sense of community and belonging to all. Through providing a space that can be used for recreational facilities or the organisation of recreational facilities, with the object of improving the conditions of life for the persons for whom the facilities or activities are primarily intended. We will achieve this by hosting book clubs, craft evenings and enlisting volunteers from the village to help run the Hub and talk to visitors about the village. The volunteers would be primarily elderly residents who would know the history and benefit from the social engagement.
