02 Purpose and work

What the charity exists to do

Eriskay Community Hall hosts a variety of events throughout the year that are attended by locals and visitors. Our aim is to bring people together to combat loneliness and to help adults and children communicate and socialise on a regular basis. We have a thriving Youthclub for primary age children which we run from October – March. We feel it is important to give children the opportunity to come together to have fun and keep fit at the same time especially in the winter months when they don’t get many opportunities to be active. There are around 22-25 children attending each week and we provide a variety of different resources eg. arts & crafts, board games, table tennis football etc. We also regularly put on Children’s Activities which suit all ages including pre-school children. We have our softplay which we use at some of these sessions, and it is often hired out for parties. We host regular regular coffee mornings, bingos and ceilidhs.
