COMMITTED TO SUPPORTING LOCAL

About Dunoon Presents (BID)

Located on the Cowal Peninsula on Scotland’s west coast, we take great pride in our role as part of the local community. The Dunoon Business Improvement District (BID) is a private-public partnership that brings together businesses in the area to work collectively towards the long-term benefit of the local business community. By pooling their resources, businesses are able to undertake projects that would be difficult or impossible to achieve alone, such as marketing campaigns or physical improvements to the area.

Alastair Baird, one of our directors, currently sits on the BID's board. As a member of the board, he is responsible for helping to manage and implement the BID's strategic aims. These aims include providing financial support to local businesses, promoting the area as a place to do business, and strengthening the area's overall economy.

At Shearwater, we believe that it is vital to support the local economy through our business operations. By investing in local suppliers and contractors, we not only contribute to the growth of the community, but we also foster long-term relationships with our partners. Moreover, we recognise that our success is closely tied to the success of the local economy, and we are committed to playing an active role in its development. As such, we actively seek out opportunities to collaborate with local organisations and participate in community events. By doing so, we hope to not only contribute to the growth of the local economy, but also to build a strong and sustainable business for the future.

By being a member of the Dunoon BID, our company is able to participate in a wide range of initiatives that are designed to benefit both our business and the local community. We are proud to be part of this dynamic partnership, and we look forward to working with other businesses in the area to help ensure its continued success.

Community Sponsorship Support

Investing in the local community has been of fundamental importance to Shearwater since our inception in the early 1990s. We believe that it is vitally important to continue contributing to our community by supporting grassroots clubs, most of which are run by volunteers, including several members of the Shearwater team. The following are some of the recent charities, societies, clubs, and events that we have supported:
