Penicuik Community Development Trust

Jackson Street School

Sadly, Midlothian Council is carrying out its decision to demolish Jackson Street School. In destroying a sound stone building, the Council is reducing its assets for no apparent gain.

The Trust runs Sunday night film screenings at 19:30 in Penicuik Town Hall (doors open 19:00). Tickets are usually £4.00 (at the door but also the day before at Saturday Open House).

Current and future Trust activities

The Trust is now a registered charity: number SC037990.

The Penicuik Community Development Trust was created in April 2005. The Trust's main focus is maintaining and developing the Town Hall's place in the life of the town. Since Penicuik Community Development Trust came into being, the Town Hall has been busier than at any corresponding period in recent decades.
