Summer Holiday Programme 2022
Unique in the Highlands - summer camps for youngsters aged 5 - 18. Our Easter holiday camps were fully booked, and we're now delighted to launch our Summer 2022 programme. It's on for the first 3 weeks of the holidays. One week is up at Dunain Community Woodland, the other two at Culduthel Community Woods.

"Stay outside until it's time for tea!"
These are holidays like they used to be! Easter 2022 sold out, so please help us plan ahead for the summer. Well done to the 48 children who braved some really cold conditions.

DofE Gold Open Award Group under way
This is our first year as a DofE Centre, and we're so fortunate to have come into contact with this amazing group of young people. It takes guts to step outside of your comfortable school or college social circles and commit to doing DofE Gold with people you've never met. In the photo you've got participants from four schools across Inverness & the Black Isle, with Inverness College UHI represented as well.
