News from
TTF AGM 7:00 9:00 pm Thursday, 29 November The Tolbooth High St, Forres
Light refreshments will be provided.
It will help us greatly if you could let us know in advance that youll be attending, so we can get an idea of what our numbers will be. This is not strictly necessary, but it will help us a lot with planning. Please contact us at ttforres@gmail.com
TTF has also been exploring partnerships. A very promising one is with Community Food Moray, which has recently started a Food Bank. We foresee that the EE & Healthy Living Centre could, among many other functions, serve as a drop-off point for donations of food.

Transition Streets
TTF will soon begin piloting the Transition Streets initiative developed by Transition Totnes. The experience in Totnes was that in 61 Streets groups, a total of 550 households cut their average annual bills by 570 and saved 1.2 tonnes of carbon. And, some said most importantly, they got to know their neighbours better. We hope Forres residents reap similar benefits!

Likewise, if you are a storyteller, face-painter, or run other activities that would appeal to children (young and old), please let us know what youd like to share! Our contact email is ttforres@gmail.com.
