Fun to work alongside Chiara Fingland and Ellie Burroughs from Imagine If (https://t.co/ZktJNyL7jM) - they brought a great creative stall for hosting conversations and I had the chance to deliver an introductory talk about what local place plans are to around 40 local residents

Sunday saw the launch of the Balfron Local Place Plan process at the Celebrate Balfron community event showcasing the work of different community groups across Balfron. (https://t.co/gAyzzuqLRn).

Thoroughly enjoyed an opportunity this morning to offer support to NHS Fife Director of Public Health Joy Tomlinson and consultant Lucy Devine around the process of forming Fife's LDP2, the role of the evidence report and opportunities to influence the next plan

Great to get out and about on my first commission for Place at the Table last week, working with Cat Jones of Sniffer (Climate Adaptation Scotland) in Bathgate with the folks from West Lothian Climate Hub, promoting the Climate Ready South East Scotland (CRSES) Storymap exercise.

This week turned a page on the next chapter in my career. I am now self-employed with Place at the Table, my new venture: https://t.co/ebpMPxIC6g. Landing on my feet (with gratitude) with contracts working with Adaptation Scotland, and LPPs in Balfron and Anderston. More anon!

[Development Trusts Association Scotland @DTAScot]

The 4th wk of the new financial yr & pending funding decisions threaten services, jobs & the progress and stability we've fought so hard to build!

Nice though to have been at the heart of leading this process from quote to submission, mostly because I was able to work alongside some truly inspiring people in a beautiful part of the country.

[Paul Ede | Place At The Table @edepaulf]

To be shortlisted for this award is a massive testimony to the hard work of the brilliant folks in Morvern, who aim to upgrade their work in CAP into a Local Place Plan, with PASs support. Incredibly strong competition for this award though, everyone very deserving.

[Planning Aid Scotland @PAS_tweets]

🙏 A massive THANK YOU to all who came along to our second weekend of community conversations, this time on developing detailed plans to deliver on our vision for #Struan in 2033.

Much laughter and wisdom shared! We will use the outputs to help prepare a draft plan.

[Paul Ede | Place At The Table @edepaulf]

Thoroughly enjoyed doing a spin for SURF last week entitled "Why it’s good that communities are declining to prepare Local Place Plans."
