It has been five years since the last full election process for the Community Council. On the 19th of April all active members will be standing down from the council. Some are planning to stand again; others are stepping down to take time for other things.
Community Councils are made up of people who care about their communities and want to make their area a better place to live.
Community Councillors represent local people’s views on important decisions which affect them. People who are interested in improving their communities can become a Community Councillor in the forthcoming elections. If you are over 16, on the Electoral Register and live in the Community Council area you want to represent, you can put in a nomination form.
Nomination forms can be obtained from 3rd April 2023 by emailing ccelections@stirling.gov.uk, scanning the QR code on the poster or by visiting Customer First, Port St, Stirling K8 2EJ or your local library.
For more information on Community Councils and elections scan the QR Code.
Nominations must be submitted by 19th April 2023 at 4pm.

Fundraising coffee morning and new production.
Support SABOS, Stirling and Bridge of Allan Musical Theatre your local amateur musical theatre group to raise much needed funds. They are hosting a
coffee morning this Saturday 11th from 10am at Bridge of Allan Parish Church.
The £5 entry ticket includes tea, coffee, cakes and refills!
Check out their next production:
Made in Dagenham, which will be at the Macrobert Centre, 28 Mar – 1 April.
Inspired by a true story and based on the hit movie, Made in Dagenham the Musical tells the tale of brave, ordinary women who refused to accept lower pay than men for their skilled work in the Ford car factory. Set in 1968 Essex, the show celebrates a pivotal moment in history – a struggle which continues today not just for women, but for all who seek justice in the workplace.
Your local theatre group welcomes any support the community can offer in these challenging times – come and enjoy some catchy songs, gutsy characters and gritty British comedy in this celebration of friendship, love and the importance of fighting for what is right.
