Coronavirus is playing a big part in our lives at the moment, The Community Council has been successful in obtaining additional funding from Foundation Scotland and  Greencoat UK wind.

We have created a Fund so as to assist the local residents at this time. Please see the Community Benefit Page. 

Today Reston had a special flying visit from the RBLI, Royal British Legion Indistries.

En-route to Aylesford. 

On Thursday 29th April Team Tommy, comprised of 8 dedicated individuals led by RBLI’s own Chief Executive, Brigadier Steve Sherry CMG OBE, will take Tommy on an 800 mile journey across the length and breadth of the country. Starting at Scotland’s Bravest Manufacturing Co. in Erskine, the team will cycle and run their way through some of the UK’s most iconic WW2 sites and military bases before finally reaching Britain’s Bravest Manufacturing Co. in Aylesford on Saturday 8th May – just in time for RBLI’s VE Day celebrations.

Reston and Auchncrow Community Larder

The Reston and Auchencrow Community Larder is owned and operated by the Community Council Resilient Group.

The Larder has no affiliations with the village hall other than as patrons.

​

The 'Community Larder has been operating for over a year now and has proven to be very successful. Due to its success and both the present need  and future aspirations for the communities we plan to keep it going for as long as it is supported.

We have signed up to get weekly donations through the 'Fare share' scheme. This means we will get food twice weekly from supermarkets for the larder. there will be a small cost to the community council to be a member of the scheme, but we hope that this will be worthwhile for the communities.

So please use it, it is for All.

Please feel free to donate also, either in the village hall foyer or in Reston Provisions shop, both places have donation boxes.

More information is on the Facebook page and here on the Resilient Page.
