    Colintraive Responses 2019 Priority Areas for Improvement: Public Transport Work and Housing and Local Community Economy How good is your place? Area wide engagement results using the Place Standard Tool Between May and October 2019, the Community Planning Partnership (CPP) used the Place Standard tool to engage residents in Argyll and Bute on how they feel about the place(s) that they live and work in Argyll and Bute. We are very grateful to all the responses that we received. We hope you find the information easy to understand and of interest to you and your community. We are pleased to see that the thematic areas of Natural Space, Feeling Safe, Identity and Sense of Belonging and Social Contact came out with the highest scores, needing the least improvement, when considering Argyll and Bute as a whole. The engagement has been undertaken at a place-based level and respondents provided their postcode, groupings of postcodes have created the settlement/community level detail. The results are available for community groups and partner agencies to use, for example, to assist with service planning or for community-led action plans. Please note: The information is the views of individuals who responded to the engagement. We trust that the information provided will be viewed within the context of which it is provided. We are grateful to all those who have taken part in the consultation and believe in sharing information for openness and transparency. We appreciate that the documents can be lengthy due to the amount of information and we hope that the format is user-friendly.

  • Parish Profile
    Rothesay : Trinity Church of Scotland Parish Profile Introduction This scenic island parish, with quick and easy links to the mainland, is seeking a Minister with leadership and pastoral skills. Our vision for the future is of a Church of Scotland congregation continuing in the centre of the historic Royal Burgh of Rothesay which ministers to the spiritual and social needs of both those within the church walls and those without. To achieve this we will continue to work with and for all age groups in the community, changing, adapting and expanding as the need arises, led by an enthusiastic minster who is interested in and cares for all God’s people in the Parish. The Charge Rothesay : Trinity is a charge without restriction. It is in a Parish Grouping with the United Church of Bute, our sister Church of Scotland charge on the Island. Consequently, the Parish boundary for both charges is the whole Island. The congregation was founded at the Disruption in 1842 and is now the result of several unions going back to 1929 when the congregation joined in the union of the United Free Church of Scotland with the Church of Scotland and the name Trinity came into being. Several other unions have take place namely:- 1938 with St James Church 1942 with Craigmore High Church 1979 with the West Church The present congregational roll is 330. Worship Throughout the year Sunday Morning Worship is held at 11 am, with an Evening Service on the first Sunday of each month at 6.30 pm. There is also a 30 minute service on Thursday mornings at 11.15 am, which is held in our Small Hall.

Argyll covers the southwestern islands and western peninsulas of Scotland. While Ayrshire boundaries are well marked, Argyll is a bit more amorphous, encompassing a region that historically stretches into the Highlands. One of Ayrshire’s primary attractions is “Burns Country,” because the area was the poet Robert Burns’s birthplace as well as his predominant stomping grounds for most of his life. But Ayrshire also offers golfers some of the best links courses in the world. If you take the train from Glasgow to Ayr, the main town of Ayrshire, you can see one course after another in the sandy dunes along the shoreline. Argyll, which means the “coast of the Gaels,” encompasses islands such as Bute and Arran as well as the more remote Kintyre Peninsula. Kintyre is so sufficiently isolated that ex-Beatle Paul McCartney has long owned a ranch there where he and his family can retreat from prying eyes. It takes the better part of the day just to reach Kintyre, however, so I don’t dwellCOPYRIGHTED on its charms for too long in this MATERIAL chapter.

At the same time SURF (Scotland’s Regeneration Network), supported by Argyll and Bute Council and Highlands and Islands Enterprise (HIE), began a process of connecting local community and regional/national partners, as part of SURF’s wider ‘Alliance for Action’ initiative. Initially developed through a HIE funded feasibility study in 2014, the SURF project drew together a Rothesay and Bute focused stakeholders group, which began to prioritise and address some of the issues highlighted in the community meeting. Since this time the number and range of businesses, organisations, charities and individuals involved has steadily grown and with it the conviction that a better Bute is possible.
