The community is at the very heart of life in Clackmannan. We are a small town rich with community groups and volunteering activity.

Active Travel

Through our Active Travel programme we encourage and support anyone who would like to cycle more, for leisure or as a cost-effective method of travel. Our Active Travel Co-Ordinator is on hand for all your cycling needs – from bike hire, maintenance workshops, servicing and training. Saddle Up social rides take place on the 3rd Sunday of the month, a great way to exercise, meet people and explore the area.

Caring & Connected

Caring and Connected Clackmannan is a partnership that brings together the Parish Church, Police, Health Centre, Community Council, Primary School, Tenants and Residents Federation, Health and Social Care Partnership and local Council representation. We are working together to address the issues faced by our community including rising energy costs, support for older residents, and social care needs. At our monthly meetings we exchange updates and discuss how we can support each other to deliver targeted services for the benefit of all. The Community Space was launched as a result of discussions at Caring & Connected meetings.

Community Space and One Stop Shop

Every Wednesday the Bruce Lounge opens as community space, with access to hot drinks, free Wi-Fi, and a range of social activities including board games and jigsaws. It also serves a a “one stop shop” to access vital outreach services including Citizen’s Advice, Home Energy Advice, the Community Larder and a monthly Adult Social Care drop-in. No appointments are needed for outreach, and everyone is welcome to come along, enjoy some company and make new connections.
