Garvald & Morham Community Council are keen to support up and coming Non Olympians in any small way that we can – this support is accessed through the Wind Farm Fund and allocated by the Community Council.
We’d love to help our community in their hobbies and sporting endeavours. It could be a special pair of rugby /football boots, running shoes, musical instruments – anything that any individual thinks would benefit their cause – not necessarily anything sporty.
We would welcome applications by completing the form available on the GMCC webpage. Our next meeting is on the 4th April so get busy and see what you can think of.
Feel free to contact me, or any member of the Community Council, if you need help or clarification.

There are number of abandoned bags of dog poo appearing in and around Garvald.
Please clean up after your dogs – ‘bag it AND bin it’. Thank you.
Under the Dog Fouling (Scotland) Act 2003, if you are in charge of a dog you must clear up after it – regardless of your age and whether or not you own the dog. You must pick up any fouling immediately and throw it away in a proper bin or take it home with you. Please note that picking up dog excrement in a bag and then leaving the bag lying around is still an offence.
The Act applies to failure to “pick up” in any “public open place” apart from designated agricultural land. A “public open place” includes:
Excuses such as not knowing your dog has fouled or not having a bag with you to pick it up won’t be accepted by our wardens, and you will still be fined.
