SET are an enthusiastic group of volunteers trying to make our village just a little more accessible and beautiful. We look forward to engaging with other community groups within the village so that we can all work together for the common goal of improving life for the people and environment in Skelmorlie.
Skelmorlie has so many great assets; its people, the woodland, the sea and shore, our local businesses and school to name just a few.
If you are interested in helping to protect some of Skelmorlie’s precious resources then this is the group for you. So far the group has come together to take action on beach clean’s, litter picks, identifying and clearing invasive species but there is always more to do and we welcome new volunteers and new ideas.
