The Pennyghael Development Association, with support from Community Links Scotland, applied for and has been given for grants of £9,500 each by Argyll and the Islands LEADER Programme 2007-2013 and the BIG Lottery 'Investing in Ideas' fund, which will enable us to:

• Appoint consultants to assess need, demand and alternative options, resulting in production of an options appraisal, a comprehensive Business Plan and a funding strategy.
• Appoint an architect to work with the consultants and produce costed design options in line with the consultants' findings and recommendations and the needs and demands of the local community, and to produce a final, fully costed option to be put forward for funding.

The new outline Business Plan produced for us by Community Links Scotland can be viewed or downloaded via this link.

The selection process for appointing regeneration consultants and an architect design team has been completed.

We have appointed: Community Links Scotland as regeneration consultants and Benjamin Tindall Architects as the design team.

A initial meeting with both consultants and the Directors wil be arranged shortly.
