ABERFELDY aspiring to be Scotland's healthiest town
Help Aberfeldy become Scotland’s healthiest town and join our board of trustees
Healthiest Town Aberfeldy is an exciting, community-driven initiative dedicated to improving physical, mental, social and environmental wellbeing for everyone in our town. Inspired by the Blue Zones approach, we aim to create a place where it’s easy for everyone to live a healthy, fulfilling life. We’re now looking for a new trustee to join our board. This is a voluntary role - the staff team manage the day-to-day delivery of the initiative, and trustees offer oversight,support and strategic direction.
Would you be a good fit?
We are committed to creating a diverse board that represents the richness of our community and brings a variety of perspectives. You don’t need to be a governance expert - we’re interested in people who can contribute their skills and energy to our cause. We’re particularly keen to hear from people with experience in finance, book keeping or business management. Trustees are appointed for an initial 3-year term, and the time commitment is about one day a month. Participating in our community events is also encouraged.

Our Vision and Story
The Vision
We have learned from the world's healthiest people on how to feel well and live longer. Harnessing the power of our local community to improve the health and wellbeing of our 'wee' town, we dream of improved physical health and wellbeing, and of Aberfeldy becoming Scotland's healthiest town.
Our Story
We are inspired by stories from the world’s healthiest communities (‘Blue Zones’), and we want to share the knowledge and lessons learned to benefit our community. We work and live in this community and we understand the challenges people face finding the right path to good health, and working through an avalanche of conflicting advice. Here we share the scientific evidence base for enjoying life for longer.

Locally Inspired
Inspired by some of the people in our community pursuing healthier lives, we wanted to share their stories. And kindly they obliged!
Our Launch Night
On Monday 16th May 2022 we had our official 'Healthiest Town' launch in Aberfeldy, where we set out our vision for the town. To find out more watch the video!
