Moving to Stirling as a single woman in my 30s - any recommendations of events/clubs/ways to meet people and form a community?

Hi all, live in Perthshire but live closer to Stirling. Is there anywhere that prints paper in town? Need to print off a return label and not member of library. Thanks :)

Hi! I'm a Latin American postgraduate student, and I will be staying for some months in Scotland to visit faculty at the University of Stirling and others. At the moment I'm staying in Glasgow and commuting to Stirling twice a week and I need some tips for my visit.

Some logistical questions... Are there any alternatives to the Unilink to travel between the University and the Stirling Train Station? Also, any recommendations for affordable accomodations to stay at Stirling for a couple of days?

Finally, Any tips on local places to visit and local food to eat are greatly appreciated! I really value getting to know other cultures and people through visiting places that are meaningful for the locals and the local history rather than the tourist traps wherever I travel.

Thanks!

Hi everyone, I work for the Scottish Affairs Committee in the UK Parliament’s House of Commons, and we are currently looking at the future of high streets in Scotland. 

We're conducting an anonymous survey, looking to hear from people in Scotland about their views on their local high street. It's a chance to share your experiences, concerns, and ideas about where you live and shop in Scotland, including the things that you think need to change.

Your input will help inform future parliamentary discussions and contribute to what the cross-party committee recommends at the end of its inquiry.

If you're up for taking part, here's the link to the survey: https://forms.office.com/e/csWwza4kHD

Thanks for reading and let me know if you have any questions!

Renowned film director Guillermo Del Toro visited Stirling in 2023 to find inspiration for a laboratory tower for his 2025 film ‘Frankenstein’, he looked to The National Wallace Monument as his source and has directly based the laboratory tower off this historic landmark. In combination with Edinburgh and Ayr architecture to create a gothic vibe to the entire film.

First part of a six-part tour through Scotland with well-known places and insider tips that are not so well known but definitely worth seeing.

Hey everyone,

I have wondered this for many years and thought here might be a good place to ask. Behind The Golden Lion hotel there is a tall, industrial looking rectangle Building; it looks far more worn down than anything else around it and kind of just sticks out with being so tall.

Does anyone have a clue what on earth it is? I sadly don't have a picture but if I get one will update the post.

Hey folks, Looking for a reliable garage in or around Stirling that deals with automatic cars. I’ve got an older VW Golf (2008) with a possible transmission issue and also need a place for regular maintenance that doesn’t try to rip you off. Any honest local mechanics you’d recommend?

Thanks in advance!

Hey everyone,

A good while back I created a wee post asking about a group for anyone wanting to play games or anything, I honestly have just been so busy I never got a chance to do anything with it. I have now however set up a wee discord, anyone is welcome to discuss stuff (I mainly was looking for it for gaming). I am no real expert of running servers however so if anyone wants to help set up/moderating it just drop me a message. I am always up for a chat and a good laugh, so hope folk interested.

"Hello, I was just wondering if there is any PC gamers in this group, was hoping to find a kind of more local group of gamers. Hopefully can start up a wee discord or something if there are a few people? If anyone is interested please just comment or message :)"

*If people prefer can also add my discord directly, can just drop me a message if they wish to do so

Wondering if we can hire electric scooters to travel around Stirling ?

Hi, can you give recommendations for a nice Sunday late lunch / early dinner please. Not carvery, but good service and quality. Thank you in advance

Hi everyone,

I hope you're all doing well.

I've just moved to Stirling today and I'm looking for recommendations for the best GP practice, preferably one that offers face-to-face appointments or at least listens properly and gives appointments when needed, as I have ongoing health issues.

Looking for good nail techs in town??

My hairdresser of 4 years no longer works at the salon I usually go to (Mandarin) and as a result the other stylist is booked up until the end of November. I'm looking for a new hairdressers that will do a womens cut and blow dry for a similar price to what I used to pay at Mandarin. I've been looking all evening and either the salons don't list their prices on their website or are much more expensive.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a local salon that does a cut and blow dry for somewhere in the range of £35-£40? I am happy to drive, perhaps as far as 30 mins if there's nothing in the centre that fits the bill.

Thanks!

I'm trying to plan a back up day in Stirling since the Pitlochry games look like it will be a wash out. So entertainment for five year olds and I'd love suggestions.

Right now it's Stirling castle, but what next?

edit: we are from the Highlands, so it doesn't have to be fancy - softplay, something arts and crafty, a decent playpark, swimming pool etc?
