The Speech that the ACCF didn't get to make...

The Aberdeen Community Council Forum (a body representing all the community councils in Aberdeen) sought to address the full council on the 18th August 2010 about the robustness of the Local Development Plan. Despite being within their standing orders, Aberdeen City Council voted 29 to 12 not to hear the views of the ACCF.

Transition Aberdeen

Aberdeen Forward is running a project called Transition Aberdeen, which aims to help communities deal with the twin challenges of climate change and peak oil, by taking simple, constructive action. The main aspects of the project are providing sustainability training, getting derelict allotments back into production and establishing a 'landshare' scheme and community growing areas within Aberdeen.

SpringClean Scotland

** post script: Thank you for helping to make National Spring Clean 2010 such a resounding success! For those of you who love facts and figures… This year 83,668 volunteers took part in 1,406 litter picks across the whole of Scotland during the month of April. That’s more than 1.5% of the Scottish population, who took action to clean up the country this spring. Amazingly, 891 schools and nurseries took part and young people accounted for 79% of participants overall – putting us adults to shame.
