The ballot results are in, and we are delighted with the outcome. There were separate questions posed to gauge the level of community support for the acquisition of the two different parcels of land, Castle Woods and the open ground at Cumberland Avenue. In both cases, the respondents were 90% in favour.

We would like to thank everyone that took part. This is a very important step in our work to protect, restore and manage these valuable natural assets on behalf of the local community.
We will now use the results of the ballot to support our applications to the Scottish Government to bring the land into community ownership and management. We still have a great deal of work to do to achieve this, but this was a vital step and we are DELIGHTED with the response. Thanks again to everyone that took part.
Thank you Helensburgh!
