New Web Site For Pulteneytown People's Project

8th August 2009

Pulteneytown People’s Project has recently launched its new website, www.pulteneytownpeoplesproject.com.

PPP Chairperson, Grant Ramsay explained, "PPP Directors and staff hosted a series of open days and presentations over the last year and it came to light that there were still areas of the community who were unaware of the services offered by PPP, or that these services extend to areas outside Wick. Many people are not aware of the full extent of our activities and that the project is used by over 600 users per week, ranging in age from babies to pensioners in their 80’s. We have also made major developments with our ambitions to provide a Community and Training Facility within the town in recent months and we expect to hear by the end of the month whether our £1 million application to the Big Lottery was successful. We hope that the new website will help us to keep people informed of our progress and allow local people to give feedback to the project."

The website provides a range of information on PPP’s projects, which include the after-school and holiday clubs, HomeLink housing support service and a variety of courses at Wick Training Centre. It also provides details of other services available to the public, such as faxing and photocopying facilities, assistance with creating CVs, providing benefits advice and taking rent payments for Pentland Housing Association tenants.
