Loch Ness community health group throws party to celebrate its 10th anniversary
A Loch Ness-side group that helps a community stay active and healthy has celebrated its 10 anniversary with a big Picnic & Party.
Boleskine Community Care now plans to make the recent successful get-together an annual event since it was so well received by local peopl.
It is a leading provider of health and wellbeing and care at home services in the Stratherrick and Foyers area, and for the past 10 years, the organisation has been dedicated to enhancing the wellbeing and quality of life for individuals and families through a range of activities and initiatives.
The joyous gathering at The Hub in Foyers, showcased a decade of growth, unity, and heartfelt appreciation for all who have contributed to the organisation's success.
Chairperson Kit Cameron delivered a touching speech reflecting on Boleskine Community Care’s transformative journey over the decade, and he expressed sincere gratitude to the trustees past and present, whose “steadfast dedication and visionary leadership have guided the organisation through milestones and challenges alike.”
Special recognition was extended to Stratherrick and Foyers Community Trust, the primary funders whose generous support has enabled Boleskine Community Care to expand its services and impact more individuals within the community. Their belief in the organisation's mission has been instrumental in driving its growth, said the group.
The event also honoured volunteer drivers, whose reliable community transport services have connected countless individuals to essential resources and events like the anniversary celebration, ensuring inclusivity for all.
Additionally, heartfelt appreciation was expressed to dedicated carers whose compassion enriches the lives of those they support daily.
The seamless execution of the party was credited to Jo Mitchell, Olivia Grant, and Susan Erlam, who ensured a day filled with memorable entertainment and exceptional catering.
Reflecting on the success of the 10th Anniversary celebration, Boleskine Community Care extends profound gratitude to everyone who contributed through volunteering, sponsorship, or attendance. Each contribution has made a significant impact on the community and the organisation’s mission.
Looking ahead, Boleskine Community Care is looking to host more community events including an annual Picnic & Party.
