Community Profiles for Banchory, Cruden Bay, Kemnay, Newburgh, Portlethen and Portsoy have been published.

Community Profiles have been produced to provide a description of the community so that residents have some accurate facts and figures and some more subjective information about their community. The facts and figures have been provided by Aberdeenshire Council’s Planning Information and Research section. Other information was provided by people who live or work in the area. Hopefully residents will be able to recognise and connect with the community as described.

It is important to stress that the information in this Community Profile is intended to be a snapshot of the community at a point in time and not a complete picture. Links to other websites are included for anyone who wishes to extend the study.

The community profile is a handy resource for a community about to undertake a needs assessment. It provides the information required to set the context for community discussions to take place.
