Crail Community Choir
Always wanted to try your hand at singing but never quite got around to it?
It's never too late to try something new! With our 'COMMUNITY CHOIR' we aim to provide the opportunity for anyone to be part of a village choir, learning specially arranged versions of the big hits from stage and screen, choral and folk songs with our Musical Director, Janice Nisbet. No need to read music.
We meet on Mondays at 7.30 pm in the Town Hall or Church Hall (see local notices). £1 per night.
Come along and join us!
Crail Community Council
The Royal Burgh of Crail and district Community Council is an elected body created to ascertain, co-ordinate and express to local and public authorities the views of the Crail community. Community Councils are the most local tier of statutory representation in Scotland, they bridge the gap between local authorities and communities, and help to make public bodies aware of the opinions and needs of the communities they represent. A particular role of the Council is to encourage community participation and a sense of community spirit.
Crail Community Hall
Crail Community Hall is available for community use.
If you are a group looking for a space or an individual who wants to start a new activity, just get in touch by emailing crailcommunityhall@gmail.com
Currently we are actively looking to expand the fitness class offer at the hall in addition to the very successful Pilates classes that are run by Judy Drew every Wednesday.
Crail In Bloom
'Crail in Bloom' plant and maintain the flower tubs and barrier baskets on Marketgate, St Andrews Road and the High Street. We have also started to plant an orchard in the field between Kirk Wynd and Roome Bay Avenue. We are entirely a volunteer organisation and raise funds for the plants, compost, new tubs and so on by holding regular coffee mornings, a plant sale and many generous donations. The tubs are watered and dead headed throughout the season by volunteers and we also plant for a spring display of violas and bulbs. In 2015, we were very proud to have been awarded a Gold certificate in the Beautiful Fife competition.
Crail Matters
Crail Matters is the weekly newsletter of the village of Crail, located in the East Neuk of Fife, Scotland; it is funded entirely by donations from advertisers and readers. Crail Matters is published by Crab Publishing, a private company limited by guarantee which distributes any profits to the Crail community. It is published in digital format (every Monday at 8.00am), and in hard copy; the hard copy is available at various locations in Crail on Monday morning.

Admission to the Museum and all of our collections & exhibitions is FREE. This is only made possible by the generous donations of visitors and their purchases in our well-stocked shop.
