Signposting service - The Lochcarron Centre (Howard Doris Centre)

One of the proposed remits of The Lochcarron Centre (Howard Doris Centre) is to act as a signposting service for groups, activities and organisations operating within our area. We have been working hard behind the scenes to get the necessary permissions from people so that the signposting spreadsheet can be opened up for public access, and we are now nearly there!

The web address is:

Anyone with the link should have read-only access to the spreadsheet. The spreadsheet will give you a list of those groups that we are aware of in each of the areas covered by the GP practises of Applecross, Lochcarron and Torridon. If you are searching for something in the list you can press 'Control F' and this will open a text box so you can put a search term in. It does not include days or times of activities as these are subject to change, but it will give you a contact person for each group, along with their preferred means of contact.

For people who are not able, or would prefer not, to access the information this way Anne Mackay at the Howard Doris Centre will be able to access the information for you if you call in or phone her on:

01520 722541

What would be really useful now is if people involved in local activities could go onto the spreadsheet and check that their entry is correct. We would also welcome any further suggestions on groups or services that we have missed out. At the moment the list is pretty strong on what is going on in Lochcarron, but less so for the outlying areas - we would love some more input on this.

One really lovely take-home message from collating all this information is the knowledge that we are a pretty resourceful community!
