Programme
Our aim is to showcase recent developments in new independent community car clubs in small towns and rural communities in Scotland. We will examine lessons from the Developing Car Clubs in Scotland programme over the past year and apply them to any future expansion of the network.
The conference programme also includes contributions from outside of Scotland, recognizing that there is at least a decade’s experience of independent “rural” car clubs in England.
(Full details of sponsors and partners will be included in the final published programme.)
