Welcome to Our Place Lochside & Lincluden

What is Our Place?
Our Place is an initiative from the Big Lottery Fund that aims to build stronger connections and relationships in communities, empowering local people and organisations to bring about positive and lasting changes in their neighbourhood.  It has seen more than £1.5million invested in projects across the Lochside and Lincluden.
The communities of Lochside and Lincluden in North West Dumfries have been selected as one of seven areas in Scotland to receive Our Place investment from the Big Lottery Fund.

Research

Since 2014 we've been talking to lots of people in lots of different ways which helps us find out what people think is good and what still, what could be better and how we could make it better. We do a Listening Survey every year and also attend community events and meetings.
