The Crieff Community Trust (CCT) is delighted to announce the receipt of grants totalling £22,000 for the repair of a popular local path through the community-owned woodland at Acorn Dell in Crieff. The funding has been provided by SSE’s Sustainable Development Fund and from Perth and Kinross Council’s Community Environment Challenge Fund. It will be used to carry out improvements to the first section of the Acorn Dell path, starting from Turretbank Road, along the Turret Burn.

The work in Acorn Dell is expected to begin in the next few months. It is likely that the path will need to be closed for short periods to enable the work to be carried out, but the long-term benefit will far outweigh any minor inconvenience. Further information about the start date and information about the path closure will be well publicised in advance on our website, in the local press and local social media sites. Notices will also be placed on the path itself.
