Have Your Say - Placemaking and Community Engagement Sign Up

Closes 24 Feb 2026

Opened 24 Feb 2022

Overview

The way we are engaging with our residents is changing - and we want you to have your say

Placemaking is a process of community engagement where the opinions and desires of the community are used to inform the future of the places we live, work and play - and by getting involved and telling us what matters to you, we can make sure the voices of all Scottish Borders residents are heard.

Sign up to receive updates from Scottish Borders Council on community engagement events in your areas, to find out about active consultations, funding opportunities, and who to contact when you have an amazing idea to benefit your neighbourhood.
