Clacks residents are invited to celebrate Black History Month this Saturday, with a free even at Sauchie Community Hall.

This year’s theme is "standing firm in pride and power", and the event will get underway at 2pm.

It’s organised by Alliance4Growth, and will feature music from DJ OTIKS and Ogene Alright.

African vendors will be available, and Stirling University Dr Ama Laeani will speak to attendees.

An official statement said: “Dr Lawani is an educator, mentor, and advocate for inclusion, known for her passion for empowering individuals through knowledge and self-awareness.

“Her journey reminds us of the strength that comes from embracing our identity, our culture, and the power of education in shaping a better world.

“At Alliance4Growth, we believe in creating spaces where voices like hers can inspire conversations that build confidence, unity, and purpose, especially among communities working to make positive change.”
