A CHURCH in Aberfoyle has landed a lottery cash boost of almost £10,000.
St Mary’s Episcopal Church, in Main Street, picked up the £9847 award in the recent round of grants from the National Lottery’s small grants scheme, Awards for All.
It will be put to good use to help improve public safety access and the facilities of the church itself.
Railings will be put in place, an audio and public address system will be installed and stackable chairs will also be bought.
A number of other community groups and charities in and around Stirling were also celebrating after being selected to receive grant funding.
Among these were the Stirling-based Aberlour Child Care Trust, which received a £7251 award.
Elsewhere, The Strathendrick Pipe Band Association were awarded £5,000 to buy equipment that will enable members to attend four major pipe band competitions.
Strathblane Out of School Care Ltd received £4865 for play equipment and summer excursions, and the Braehead and Broomridge Childminding Support Group landed £4715 which will be used to pay for things such as hall and equipment rental, snacks, activities and trips.
ACE Cornton, the community based adult learning project, also got a £4000 award to help develop peer support and mentoring services.

I wish I could write like you as Margaret Laurence once said “When I say “work” I only mean writing. Everything else is just odd jobs.”
