"The Tullynessle and Forbes Community Association is grateful to the Rural Aberdeenshire LEADER Programme for the promise of grant to enable us to take an important step forward in equipping the refurbished public hall with stage equipment.  The hall is regularly used by touring theatre companies to stage productions which are eagerly anticipated and much appreciated by the community of Tullynessle and Forbes and surrounding area."
