Current projects at RCT
Here is an overview of the work we are currently undertaking to help improve quality of life in our community.
Heartland Cares Update
Community-Led Care Project - Update
We’re making great progress in developing a community-led home care service for Rannoch & Tummel and Dunkeld & Birnam. Our aim is to help people stay in their homes for as long as they choose, addressing the challenges of accessing care in remote rural areas.
With support from consultants SKS Scotland, we’ve recently recruited a new board. We are still open to new members. Find out how to join the board.
Our next step is to recruit a Chief Executive Officer / Home Care Manager to lead the service. The role involves managing staff and volunteers, building relationships with stakeholders, and ensuring regulatory compliance and finance management. The successful candidate will also be the public face of the organisation, championing the benefits of community-based care.
The full job description and application pack are available on the SKS website. We warmly welcome applications from members of our community, who bring an understanding of some of the challenges faced by our local population.

Affordable Housing
Rannoch Community Trust (RCT) and the Dunalastair Estate have been working in partnership over the last couple of years to look at the potential for developing a site in Kinloch Rannoch for residential housing including houses for affordable rent and sale.
We are proposing to develop part of the field to build 12 community owned houses for affordable rent and low-cost home ownership (LCHO) with a further 7 houses being built for Dunalastair Estate for private rent or open market sale.
