Join us on August 28th to discuss the future of Parton Kirk.

What could the future hold for Parton Kirk?

Parton Community Council is exploring the opportunity of bringing the Kirk into community ownership and creating a vibrant space that celebrates the life and legacy of world-famous scientist James Clerk Maxwell.

The vision includes a welcoming community and science centre, a venue for local events and activities, and a place that attracts visitors to the Glenkens while serving local people for years to come.

This is still at the ideas stage, and no decisions will be made without the involvement of the whole community. We'll be asking everyone to share their thoughts and help shape the future of Parton Kirk, so please put August 28th in your diary, do your best to spread the word, and come along to have your say.

Visit Dumfries and Galloway!

Summer in Scotland can get so crowded - tourists flocking to the Highlands, the NC500, and around Edinburgh's cobbled streets - which are all stunning! But maybe it's time to take a wander around Scotland's most underrated corner - Dumfries and Galloway!
