Plans For New Community Campus To Be Go On Display

Plans for the new Eyemouth Community Campus on the Scottish Borders are to go on display on Thursday, 26 September.

Community groups and members of the public are being urged to view the plans which are part of a Fit for 2024 property event next month.

The drop-in event will be at Eyemouth Primary School from 4pm to 7.30pm.

It will give the public the chance to find out more about the investment proposals for the new Community Campus, and for the local authority to listen to the community's views.

Alongside partners, Scottish Borders Council have come up with a strategy on the site of Eyemouth Primary for a new Campus as part of a wider masterplan.

It would see new educational facilities, local services and extra care housing located on a single campus, alongside complimentary affordable housing.

In addition, there will be further discussions regarding the draft Eyemouth Economic Regeneration Action Plan, with information on the range of positive projects being taken forward in the coastal town.

Councillor Sandy Aitchison, Executive Member for Neighbourhoods and Locality Services, said: "This will be the first chance for residents in Eyemouth and East Berwickshire to see the exciting plans for Eyemouth Community Campus.

"We believe this inclusive approach to learning and care will enhance Eyemouth by offering opportunities for learning and social interaction for the whole community in a central location.

"We hope as many residents and groups as possible can make it on 26 September to provide their views about the campus and other public buildings within the community."
