Aberdeen Hub
Everything Aberdeen. One place.
INVEST · VISIT · LIVE · BUILD
Aberdeen Hub is the town's independent information, economic-development, communication and accountability hub — connecting residents, businesses, visitors, investors, organisations and public services around one shared future.
A town should know what is happening in its own town.
Aberdeen Hub brings local businesses, tourism, jobs, training, investment, public services, safety, heritage, projects and public decisions together in one place.
The aim is simple: help Aberdeen become cleaner, safer, stronger, better informed and economically more successful — while creating opportunity for local people and protecting the future of the town.
Ask Aberdeen
Our goal is to create a local town assistant that can help residents, visitors, businesses and investors find verified Aberdeen information without searching through dozens of websites, documents and WhatsApp groups.
Ask Aberdeen will distinguish between official verified information, verified local information, community reports and general guidance.

Tourism, business, employment, education, safety, services and development are not separate problems. They work together as one local economy.

Water, electricity, safety and area-specific information where appropriate.
One verified message shared through the right channels.
Residents without smartphones or data must still receive important information.
Clean it. Maintain it. Report it.
Aberdeen should be clean, safe and properly maintained every day. Local street and block stewards can help create paid work while making sure defects and problems are noticed and reported quickly.

Aberdeen's heritage is an economic and cultural asset.

Structures older than 60 years should be identified early and applicable heritage approval processes checked before supported alteration or demolition projects proceed.

Help build a stronger Aberdeen.
Residents, businesses, farmers, tourism organisations, schools, churches, community groups, political organisations, public institutions, new residents and investors all have a role — provided the town's future comes first.
Aberdeen Hub is an independent town information and development initiative. It is not the municipality, SAPS, a court, an estate agency or a financial-services provider. Official decisions, legal information and emergency information should always be linked to verified authoritative sources.
