Members of the Kirkton Community celebrated their achievements in leadership at a special celebration event on 15th January among the stunning surroundings of Forbes of Kingennie Country Retreat.

This inspiring occasion marked the culmination of their journey through a Values Based Leadership Experience delivered by Columba 1400. During the experience, 12 members of the Kirkton Community focused on core community values of awareness, focus, creativity, integrity, perseverance and service.

Geoff Leask, Dundee Coordinator at What Matters to You, said:

Experiences like these are a vital step in exploring the values that groups like Kirkton want to embed in their work to make sure that the community’s needs are heard and acted upon.

This leadership opportunity has been a great way to help bring together members of the local Kirkton Community to shape our ambitious ideas for our new community owned and run centre for Kirkton.
