Thornhill Community Trust has been a beneficiary of Stirling Community Lottery since it started in December 2021. When you sign up to the lottery and purchase tickets we receive a percentage of the ticket price.
In that time a small number of supporters have raised over £1000 for the Trust which has been used to benefit the community.
We have donated to the Gala fund, Thornhill Views and towards the Thornhill Place Planning process.
We only have 15 active supporters. A number of others have signed up but are not buying tickets- remember you won’t win and we don’t benefit if you don’t buy tickets!
There is a weekly draw on Saturdays with cash prizes up to £25,000 and a monthly super draw prize. Tickets cost just £1 per week.
The March prize is a £1000 voucher for Sainsburys or cash equivalent.

The superdraw prize for this month is a Nintendo Switch Bundle or £1000 cash.
Weekly draws give you a chance to win to up to £2500! All for £1/ week.

The members of the group who have been working on the plan will be there, wearing yellow badges, and they will be happy to answer questions and help where they can.
The afternoon will wind up at 5.00pm.
An online Poll will be available after the meeting so that people who are unable to attend the meeting can have their say.
Drum roll please… the draft Local Place Plan is here: https://thornhillstirling.org/thornhill-local-place-plan…/
The draft plan includes a very long list of all the proposals/ideas for action which have emerged during our community consultations. Please take a look and decide what you think should be our priorities for the short, medium and long term benefits for our community.
You can vote for the ideas you feel should be supported at our meeting on
26 November, 2-5pm, Thornhill Community Hall.
This is a Drop-in session, with light refreshments – come when you can and take the time to look at maps and consider the options. As before, the meeting room will be arranged as an unsupervised play area for families.

Apologies if you have received this information already, we want to reach as many residents as possible so that they can take part in this important meeting. Everyone who lives in and around the village is invited.
This is a community-led plan and many of you will already have contributed via surveys and attendance at the Gathering in May.

We can achieve whatever we set our minds to but all actions need owners.
A variety of skills will be needed to achieve these aims– much of the works may have to be done by contractors (local if possible). However, they will need to be coordinated by for example short term task groups. We will need fundraisers, project management ….as well as practical skills.
If a proposal receives no support or has no names beside it, we will need to set it aside until such times as there is support for it.
If you can help deliver invitations to the meeting to every home in Thornhill next week, please get in touch with me. Also, if you have a little time to spare on the afternoon of 26 November, we would be very glad to have a hand with welcoming people to the meeting, catering and tidying up at the end. Please let me know as possible.
As always please contact me if you have any questions.
Looking forward to seeing you all on 26 November.
Kind Regards
Joyce
