We’re delighted to kick off the festive season with some amazing news about our Parish Church restoration project!
The National Lottery awarded us £198,250– an amazing early Christmas gift! As a result, we are one step closer to transforming the building into a vibrant community hub.

Good Tidings We Bring
Moreover, this National Lottery Award builds on the £233,500 we received from the Scottish Land Fund. Together, these funds will allow us to purchase the historic Parish Church and hire expert consultants to plan the next steps. Above all, your fantastic ideas and feedback from our community consultation nearly a year ago support this progress.
A Christmas Wish
However, we still need to raise approximately £1.4 million to complete the remaining conservation work and fully refurbish the building. To that end, our team is reaching out to funding organisations and exploring local opportunities. Every step forward brings us closer to our goal!
Stay tuned for more updates. The future is looking bright, and we can’t wait to have you with us on this exciting adventure!
