Falkirk THI has come to a close, following 5 years of activity in the town centre
Thank-you!
We are extremely grateful to everyone who has participated in Falkirk THI, from the grantees who carried out repairs to their buildings, to the volunteers who worked with us to deliver events and the local businesses and residents who have had to put up with the building work which has been going in the town centre.
