Dunoon Community Council - Bench Project

During 2024 Dunoon Community Council instigated and paid for a refurbishment project of eight (somewhat worse for wear) wooden benches on Alexandra Parade. The project has been completed. On behalf of Dunoon Community Council, I would like to extend our thanks to John, Richard and Drew of the Community Shed for their expertise, initial work and making facilities available. The project then moved to Steve Gilpin and his workers at the Justice Community Payback System who have done a sterling job along with assistance from the Help Argyll & Bute Project. The wooden planks and fixing bolts were sourced locally from Fynewoods and John Tyre and Sons who gave much appreciated discounts. The remaining resources have been used to refurbish the benches at the Co-op bus stop, Kirk Street and beyond. A real community effort.
