The Rank Foundation visit the Oban Area

Youth and community organisation in Oban recently had a visit from members of the board of the Rank Foundation, who spent time with Atlantis Leisure, Oban Youth Cafe and Hope 2 Oban, specifically visiting the Green Shoots Project.
This was an ideal opportunity to talk about the needs of the young folk and the wider community of Oban and the surrounding area and to demonstrate the many opportunities for collaborative working that are already taking place as well as consider future possibilities. 
During their visit to the Glencruitten House Walled Garden, Joey Newton, Chair of the Rank Foundation and the organisation's CEO, David Sanderson, encountered a variety of folks of all ages and abilities who access opportunities within the Green Shoots Project, already supported in these 'pilot' stages by the Foundation. 
A big thank you must go to all who took part in activities throughout the day, one of the few in May to be blessed with some sunshine.
