The Lochluichart Community Trust was set up to help and promote The Garve and District Community Council Area.
With promise of help to the young and old.
Some facts about the grants so far, and you can decide if we are getting value for your money.

Monday, July 6, 2015

Hi all, I see there has been a lot going on, the “Big meeting” for one, and as I am told one of the directors lost his decorum. I wonder how much it would cost to get his inborn temperament sorted, or send them all on an Anger Management course as it seems that even the chair is a bit short on decorum. Money well spent I think.
From the minutes I see that we can be trusted to have a view on a project that will cost almost £29,000, yet when one that costs £72,000 and at the moment does not confirm to the articles of the Company we don’t get to? You have to ask why? What are they hiding?

The Directors agreed that Members should be asked for their views before proceeding, as the project will cost almost £29,000,
The constitution for the Friends of Lochluichart Church has been received.  The Solicitor will be asked to examine the constitution and, with OSCR, look at the eligibility of the project for funding in the light of the questions raised at the recent Members meeting (21 May 2015). Is this not desperate or what?

Definition of desperate: Someone who wants something so bad they will go to extreme lengths to get it.

Due to the questions around the interpretation of the legal constraints on the LCT, it was agreed that the Solicitor should attend future meetings – this will be reviewed as over time.
So we have to now pay for a Solicitor to hold their hands at what cost?  I hope that we get a proper itemised account for all the costs that have been incurred by the Company and Directors. Let’s hope it’s better than the minutes that we get to see.
Question For you all; what has an irreligionist and an opulent person has in common? The Answer, add in comment box as I know how shy you all are.
Until the next time, keep the faith.

  1. I think that the director that launched the personal attack on one of our members should be made to publicly apologise, and then step down. He was an absolute joke!

  2. If you have so many problems with the way LCT is run then I suggest YOU join the committee and put some effort in to help them. They are desperate for people to join and help but no one wants to make the effort. It seems you prefer to just sit back and snipe from the side lines.

    I for am impressed that these people are prepared to give up their time to help you and your community. I suggest you show the same dedication and join and put in some of your own effort. Don't you think that makes more sense than this load of bile?

  3. Dear Concerned Resident of Garve,
    Thank you for your message, but does it not make you wonder why no one wants to help. Is it because, if your views are not in keeping with the select one or two then you are out in the cold? Or is it the personal attacks on the locals that are keen to voice the concerns? Or is it the view of the board? Well if you think you can do better do it. For me my work commitment at this time does not give me the chance to be on the board. But as for the ones that are on it, it was there choice was it not? Maybe if the ones that are on the board are not happy they should go and set up a new committee that is willing to work for all the community, and not just for a few.
    As for your comment on this bile: You and the rest of the readers must think it’s worth your time to read it so far page views are at 1,650. As for the snipe from the side lines, let me thank all the readers and members that send me updates, and all the kind messages of support. So yes, until the L C T is run for the people and not just for the few this blog will continue.
    Kind regards

  8. Hello Mr Ross,

    I've not been online for weeks. Lots going on.

    As you are asking Mrs Anoymous to quite rightly stick to facts, perhaps you would like to tell me more about yourself. My friends in the area have never heard of you.

  9. Dear Darryn,
    That’s funny I have asked all my local friends about you! But no one knows you either. Maybe we just don’t move in the same circles, Anyway this blog is not about you or me. Is it Darryn?

  10. True Fraser, it's not meant to be about us but I fear that us "unknowns" maybe a distraction on this blog.

    In other news, I hear the AGM went ahead, about 35 members turned up, all resolutions passed by the members and new Directors in place. Members had very few questions.

    1. Yes it was a good meeting was it not. It just a pity that the hand of friendship was only extended to one of the new directors ? Or did one not see the rest been welcomed in the same way. It was a poor turnout from the village was it not Darryn ? And the one director that wanted the chair appointed before the new ones could vote! Just as well there was a solicitor on hand.

  11. Didn't hear that but if you sit at the back of the hall then there is a chance you will miss what goes on up front.
