This evening, I attended the March meeting of Community Spirit - the community group for the "north" part of West End Ward, covering Tullideph, Ancrum, Pentland and the Cleghorn area.There was a presentation from Grant Simmons, Manager of the Dundee Food Train. Grant gave an update on progress with the Dundee Food Train since its recent launch. Providing an excellent shopping service for elderly people in Dundee, there are now over 40 users of the service and 35 volunteers. If you feel the service could benefit you or you would like to volunteer, here's the contact details:

Phone: 459202
Address: Office D, Market Mews, Market Street Dundee DD1 3LA
After Grant's presentation, we discussed local issues and I was able to update the meeting about the site visit the Community Spirit Secretary and I had on Monday in Ancrum Drive, with a representative of Hillcrest Housing Association, that should hopefully see some additional car parking bays becoming available for local residents. Parking is a real problem in the street and some more parking will clearly help.
