Ferries Community Board
The Ferries Community Board (FCB) is being facilitated by CalMac Ferries Limited and chaired by an independent member of the community. Its primary purpose is to be the voice of the communities and provide the community view to CalMac.
The remit of the group is to collate and inform CFL of the community view to ensure a greater involvement of the communities served by the Clyde and Hebrides Ferry Service (CHFS) for the delivery of the Ferry Service, over the 8 year contract. The FCB is separate to the CalMac Board and will:
- give direct representation of key sectors within the communities to the CalMac Ferries Board
- advise on the best form(s) of engagement with the community to share and engage on aspects of the Clyde and Hebrides ferry services, including frequency of engagement
- provide a forum to seek opinions as required and reflections on ministerial strategic direction to the CalMac Board.
