02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
CEDAR was formed in response to the threatened closure of Crawford village hall. The charity is situated in an upland rural area of southern Scotland and consists of two small villages Crawford and Elvanfoot, the hamlets of Camps and Daer and surrounding areas down to the border of Dumfries and Galloway. CEDAR was formed to Save the Hall and became a charity in order to take their plans forward. The Community Council realised there was more needed to bring people together and support Rural Living. CEDAR is a community-led Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation working to support the wellbeing, resilience and sustainability of the Crawford, Elvanfoot and Daer area. Its purposes are to advance community development by securing and improving local assets, reducing rural isolation, supporting access to services and activities, and creating opportunities for local people to come together, improve wellbeing and strengthen community life.
