A Single Voice for Scotland's Towns
Scotland's Towns Partnership is Scotland’s largest towns’ collective; representing and promoting the diversity of our towns and places, and supporting those organisations and groups that have an interest in or ownership of them.
Our role is to act as a hub for relevant News & Resources, knowledge and good practice; to support learning and Community through our events; to influence and share policies that impact towns; and to raise the profile of Scottish towns — which we do principally through our Scotland's Towns Week campaign which encourages towns to run activities and the public to use their local services.
Prostate Cancer UK is our chosen charity in 2018-19, supporting the theme of Healthy Towns. You can read more about how to help stop prostate cancer being a killer in Scotland and get involved here.
