Thanks for all the donations over Christmas. The shed is well stocked with non-perishable basic food and a good supply of sanitary items. Please come and make use of what’s available. Monthly FareShare deliveries are now coming from a new facility in Alness.

Please continue to donate any toys, games, books, jigsaws, small household items etc. if they are no longer needed. If there are specific needs within the community then please let us know.  All monetary donations help provide additional food items. Please donate if you can when you borrow or take an item from the shed.

(Donations can be popped into the bins at the back but please ensure items are complete, in date, clean and no clothes/shoes/material etc).

Thanks to all for your continued support for our lovely little shed.  To keep up-to-date with what’s available join the Culbokie Sharing Shed group on Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/343545136916931/

North Kessock updates

January 2022               

The NK larder seems to be well established now and well used with quite a lot of Christmas provisions and school uniform being donated. The involvement of the new shop owners has made a big difference in how much food we are preventing from going to waste. 4 big bags of mainly bread this week. 

The fridge has been really useful for keeping perishables that bit longer and meant we were able to accept donations of smoked fish from the fish van at the market.
