Aberdeen Civic Society
- VO100132
Aberdeen Civic Society have great opportunities for people to help volunteering as Executive Committee Members.
The Executive Committee work to advance the objectives of the Society which are:
• To stimulate public interest in and care for the beauty, history and character of the city of Aberdeen and its surroundings.
• To encourage the preservation, development and improvement of features of general amenity and historic interest.
• To encourage high standards of architectural planning.
• The Society pursues these aims by means of illustrated lectures, discussions, visits and walkabouts.
An important feature of the Society's work is its Awards and Commendations Scheme. Through this, encouragement and recognition are given to those who have contributed to the amenity of the city by means of new buildings or the restoration and preservation of old buildings.
The Society keeps itself informed on planning applications made to the City Council. It submits comments and suggestions, and lodges objections when proposals are considered detrimental to the city.
Committee members are sought to help with the following activities:
• to arrange the annual programme of talks
• to organise the Society's social events- the annual Supper and Summer Outing
• to research, discuss and respond to current Aberdeen City planning applications and to participate in public consultations on urban planning
• to improve the Society's communication with the public through social and other media
A fantastic opportunity to help with the preservation, development and improvement of features of general amenity and historic interest in Aberdeen.
