Community Conversations: You Need You!

Posted on February 16, 2021

Community Conversations are taking place online for areas across Falkirk. Getting involved now means that you have a chance to influence use of community property and schools in your area, and raise known issues with many of the council’s decision makers. So far, communities have been underrepresented in these conversations, and CVS Falkirk urge you not to miss your chance to be heard.

Wellness in Winter Campaign Launched

Posted on November 26, 2020

As this will be a very different winter for everyone, in Falkirk, Scotland, and across the world, we have launched our Wellness in Winter campaign, helping our communities look after each other. We want to focus on people’s health and wellbeing throughout the winter – everything from physical health (including access to Vitamin D, and flu vaccinations and how they are being rolled out) and mental health, to how to keep spirits up during the festive period (and beyond, into January), and financial worries.

Safe and Fun Falkirk Halloween Activities During COVID-19

Posted on October 23, 2020

This year’s Halloween will be a bit different for everyone. Some of our local people and community groups are organising alternative outdoor Halloween activities and sharing their crafty ideas so everyone can still enjoy the holiday safely across Falkirk. Our team has gathered some of them on our website, including costume competitions, spooky recipes, pumpkin trails, crafty ideas and old Scottish traditions that might be worth reviving this strange year.
