  • Pictured: Bellfield Church Hall<br />
<br />
The community in Portobello came out last night in support of a locally organised campaign to try and save a local church and its attached church hall for the community. No longer needed by the church, who plan to sell it, the hall is widely used by community groups. The campaign hopes to make use of Scottish community buy-out legislation that has recently been extended to cover urban areas in one fo the first such campaigns in a Scottish urban area. Local film acting couple, Shauna Macdonald and Cal MacAninch, were instrumental in the event that featured a variety of local talent and was attended by about 150 people, packing out the church hall. Shauna brought the show together, along with her sister Kyrsta, and Cal performed on stage in both the specially written short play that opened the evening and singing with the band Hooseband at the show's finale.  <br />

  • Four years ago a group of friends opened a cafe/bar on Portobello High Street. This weekend The Skylark celebrated its fourth birthday with many of the Portobello residents who have become more than customers to the popular cafe/bar.<br />
The Skylark is owned by Nina Davidson, Paul Lambie, Fraser Butterfield and Duncan Alexander.<br />
<br />
Pictured: One of the organisers of the local campaign to save Bellfield Church, Kyrsta Macdonald-Scott, enjoys a pint of gluten-free beer from craft brewery, Bellfield Brewery. The brewery donated a keg to The Skylark for the party and the Skylark in turn decided to pass on the profit from the keg to the Save Bellfield campaign. <br />
