I'm fundraising in support of the Portree and Braes Trust King George V Playing Field Community Buy-Out.
After years working toward community ownership, the trust has never been closer to making the community's vision of owning the King George V playing field a reality. With the community's support the can finalise the buy-out and start delivering the plans to improve these facilities for current and future generations. Plans include:
- improving the drainage on the field to support increased use for sports and events
- building a new adventure playpark in the old swimming pool site -creating a permanent pump track for wheeled sports in the site of the existing playpark
- creating a compact single lane running or sprinting track on the field that would compliment other uses
- extending the community centre and creating new toilets, changing rooms and a function suite overlooking the field
