Raising awareness of community projects in Argyll and Bute

A group of people planting a tree.

Argyll and Bute Council is calling on residents and members of community groups to take part in a short survey that will help shape how the Council works to support community projects in the area.

Launched in March 2025, Aspiring Places is a new digital platform that aims to help community groups come together and support each other with similar ideas. The new resource is also helping to promote local projects and connect groups with funding and partnership opportunities.

The Council wants to hear from you in a short survey to see if awareness of community projects has increased since the platform’s launch. Feedback will help shape Aspiring Places to meet community needs.

Take part in the survey.

The survey is open until 3 August 2025. You can request paper copies by emailing AspiringPlaces@argyll-bute.gov.uk. ­­­­
