Boleskine Community Care
Why you should vote for Boleskine Community Care for the People’s Choice Award
Boleskine Community Care is a volunteer-led charity working to improve the health and wellbeing of the rural community in Stratherrick and Foyers. We offer Care at Home services, a wide range of healthcare support from our local hub to reduce the need for travel to Inverness, and a full calendar of social events aimed at promoting independence and reducing social isolation.
Boleskine Community Care deserves to be Charity of the Year for its dedication to supporting people of all ages across a remote Highland community. From children’s activities to services for older adults, BCC offers inclusive events, wellbeing groups, and home support that bring people together. Volunteer-run community transport ensures access to medical appointments, prescription collections, and local activities. For many, BCC is a lifeline, providing practical help and a sense of belonging. Many have shared that BCC made them feel valued, helped them make friends, and strengthened their connection to the community.
