Blairgowrie and Rattray Development Trust

Blairgowrie & Rattray Development Trust has a number of roles within the community, working alongside local people, community groups, businesses and the local authority to help create a thriving and attractive town, with a strong sense of community and identity, appealing to those who live, work and visit the area.

Our primary role is the coordination of the activities outlined in the latest Community Action Plan (CAP) or as we refer to it - the Blairgowrie and Rattray Initiative (BaRI).

Working with local people, community groups, businesses and the local authority, our aim is to:

  • Ensure Blairgowrie and Rattray is recognised and renowned for its attractive public spaces, accessibility and conscientious environmental approach
  • Increase local activities to promote sustainable use of natural resources
  • Encourage more community involvement and collaboration, working together as one towards common purposes
  • Increase recognition of the community as a centre for arts, crafts, leisure, and outdoor pursuits
  • Encourage more people to choose to Blairgowrie and Rattray throughoutthe year
  • Highlight the history and culture of the local area so it becomes widely known to residents and visitors alike
