Update on Lovers’ Walk Tree Works

Culter Community Council
Culter Community Council serves the village of Peterculter (known locally as ‘Culter’) and the surrounding countryside within the city limits of the city of Aberdeen in Scotland.
What is a Community Council?
A Community Council is a voluntary organisation set up by statute by the Local Authority and run by local residents to act on behalf of its area. As the most local tier of elected representation, Community Councils play an important role in local democracy.
The role of the Community Council is to ascertain, co-ordinate and express to the local authorities for the area and to public authorities, the views of the people of Culter on areas such as planning, licensing, roads and transportation, public services, facilities maintenance and any other matters affecting the community as a whole. The Community Council is not affiliated to any political party.
The council meets monthly and minutes of the meetings can be found on this website.
More information on Community Councils can be found by clicking here.

Urgent Appeal - New Editor Required
The current editor of the Culter Courier is stepping down and we are in need of a replacement.
The Courier is produced by a team, so the editor’s main role is in co-ordinating the team to ensure each edition is ready to be distributed to all the houses in Culter four times a year. We have a wonderful graphic designer who prepares all the layout and artwork for the printer. The editor’s role in preparing the content is to check for spelling and grammar, edit down articles if they are too long, and to prepare each article in to the software format required for the graphic design process.
Full training is available! So please think about volunteering you can.
Contact cultercourier@gmail.com if you want to find out more.
