The youth group leads this bid to support and equip the Community Garden Hub located in the grounds of the High School. We will be working with all ages to enhance our village, support outdoor learning activities to grow the gardeners of the future.

Our befriending groups will give 35 children and adults with learning disabilities a great chance to have fun, make friends and improve social skills & confidence. 35 local volunteers’ lives will be enriched and carers will have welcome respite.

The fountain located in the grounds of the Victoria Hall has been neglected over recent years, the metalwork is rusting and the paintwork is in a deplorable state. Work must be carried out urgently to halt the deterioration of this Selkirk landmark.
