A huge Merry Christmas to our incredible community! 🌟

This year, as we celebrate the season, we do so with heavy hearts, remembering our former chairman, Garry. His dedication to making our centre a welcoming place for all is a light that continues to shine brightly.

We want to give a special shout-out to all our dedicated volunteers who have given countless hours of their time throughout the year to help with our Community Food Larder, Christmas Lights and Christmas Meal.

Special thanks to Thyme and Plaice, La Mirage, Banscol Kennels and Brora Co-op, for donations ⭐️
Wishing you and your loved ones a peaceful and joyous holiday season.

Enjoy making memories with your families, and we hope to see you all soon in the New Year.

The magician Herr Drosselmeyer needs to save his nephew. Hans-Peter has been transformed into a Nutcracker; the only way to save him is for the Nutcracker to defeat the Mouse King and find a girl to love and care for him. A flicker of hope comes in the form of the young Clara, whom Drosselmeyer meets at a Christmas party. With some magic, a cosy Christmas gathering turns into a marvellous adventure.
