David's Fort 2024 - a potential project of the Community Council.
Who We Are
At the moment, the Community Council has 6 members, with two vacancies. The members are:-
John Bruce, Chair
Secretary - Post Vacant
David Bisset, Treasurer
John Gilmour
Stephen MacDonald
Ian MacPhail
Val Wilkinson
The current Community Council Member started work in November 2023. Over the last few months many projects have been discussed. However, the Comminty Council cannot own land or employ staff. To do that a local Community Trust will need to be established.
Conon Bridge is at least 10 years behind other local communities in developing local initiatives. Some will be relatively easy to do, others will need a lot of money.
The Community Council have great ambitions for projects to excite and improve the Village.
For some projects, you will say "about time" and for others you will be genuinely surprised at how ambitious we are.
TO TAKE THIS FORWARD, WE WILL NEED YOUR VIEWS AND HOPEFULLY SUPPORT.

Empowering the Local Community
Welcome to Conon Bridge Community Council
One of the key roles of Conon Bridge Community Council is to represent the views of the community to The Highland Council and other public bodies in the area. The Community Council will be represented on the Conon Bridge Community Trust once it is fully established.
To this end, we will be designating Portfolioholder to drive forward specific projects. The Folioholders are: -
Sitting in the Big Chair - John Bruce
Community and being nice - Stephen MacDonald
Green Spaces and Woodland
History -
Teckie stuff - John G.
Community Park and Woodland Management
SCHOOLBELT WOODS
The developers at the houses site in the Schoolbelt woods have shut off the usual path enjoyed by walkers in the wood. Tulloch's have now advised the Community Council that the path will be realigned, as shown on the plan opposite.
Remember that, at this time of year, the woods will be full of nesting birds. Try and minimise any disturbance to their environment.
We have potential
