Join the Dots to spotlight community-led change in Moray

COMMUNITIES leading change is set to take centre stage at this year's Join the Dots event in Moray.

Organised by tsiMoray, the annual community networking event is being held in Elgin Town Hall on Thursday, March 30, the first time it will have been held on a face-to-face basis since 2019 due to Covid.

The central theme for consideration will be community-led local development, with third sector and community groups being asked what positive action they are taking and seeing at grassroots level.

Attendees will also be encouraged to consider what more would they like to see happen, what is needed to achieve this, and how what is said at the event will help inform a new community-led vision for Moray.

Discussion will also concentrate on how Just Transition can take a central, integral role in this vision.

A total of seven guest speakers are lined up for Join the Dots 2023: Elle Adams (Moray LAG member/researcher); Viktoria Eriksson (Dufftown and District Community Association); Jane Davidson (Chairwoman of Wales Net Zero 2035); Hannah Moneagle (RGU Law School Grampian Community Law Centre); Jane Morrison (Wellbeing Economy Alliance Scotland trustee); Neil Ritch (Scotland Director, the National Lottery Community Fund); Philip Revell (Convener of Scottish Communities Climate Action Network).
