Feel free to join our "Friends of Black Isle Cares" mailing list. Registering as a friend means we can keep in touch with you about events and activities, invite you to our AGM, volunteer coffee mornings and tabletop sales, let you know about intergenerational activities and to share our news. Membership is free and has no minimum commitment in terms of time.

Volunteering is a hugely rewarding experience and if you have some time to spare, then we would love to hear from you. From delivering meals to fundraising, playing board games, gardening and befriending, we have plenty of opportunities for you to lend a hand.

If you would like to support the work that we do in our local community, please consider donating via our JustGiving page. All donations are greatly appreciated.
