Volunteer in Bridge of Allan

Bridge of Allan Community

We’re really proud to have such a large group of dedicated people in our community who work hard to make Bridge of Allan a wonderful place to be, keeping our streets safe, clean and vibrant and looking out for one another. You may not see them when you’re out and about, but our town wouldn’t be what it is without them - and for that we are grateful!  Most of these groups are always looking for help, so if you’re interested in supporting at all, you are encouraged to contact them directly.

Bridge of Allan Play Together

  • Bridge of Allan Play Together was established to create a more accessible playpark on Fountain Road.

    Founder Jennifer Rutherford has worked tirelessly to have play equipment and picnic tables suitable for wheelchair users installed, improving overall accessibility of the park and successfully campaigning for more dropped kerbs in the town.

    Her ambitions beyond this include installation of a local Changing Places toilet.
