The Our Place Camelon Project are hosting a free Afternoon Tea for adults who live in the Camelon and Tamfourhill area.

Afternoon Tea will be available for anyone who wants to go along and join in with discussions on the Our Place Camelon project. You will be able to have your say on what you think the projects funding should be spent on.

Our Place is a Big Lottery programme targeting 7 specific areas in Scotland. Camelon is one of them. The programme aims to put local people in control. People who live in a place are the best people to come up with a vision for their own community and what they want to see happen there. The aim of Our Place is to build stronger connections and relationships in Camelon, empowering local people and organisations to lead on projects that will make a big difference to the neighbourhood.
