02 Purpose and work

What the charity exists to do

The charitable objectives of the Centre are to provide relief to those in need and to promote the advancement of community development, citizenship and education through the provision of social and recreational facilities, without any distinction, for the benefit of the community. The Community Centre is pleasing and especially welcoming to all our user groups. The wi-fi internet has been replaced and is now more reliable and available throughout the building. The building occupied by the Charity is ageing. There have been some recent maintenance improvements carried out by the Highland Council. The stair treads were replaced and now the building is completely asbestos free. The Community Centre’s finances remain steady - with a good balance of cash reserves. Room rental charges have been held steady with no increases for nearly 5 years. This has helped significantly with the recovery of the Community Centre's usage, footfall and finances since 2020.
