Fundraising efforts begin at home!

Our next fund-raising mission here at Clachaig is to raise a minimum of £1000 towards the cost of a new people carrier for the Abbeyfield Care Home in Ballachulish. This new vehicle is vital for the home to continue to provide services for the older people in Ballachulish & the surrounding communities. Services provided include residential care, nursing care, intermediate care, sheltered housing with housing support, care at home, day care & a community lunch club.
Demand for these services is such that the existing mini-bus has driven 30,000 within the local communities over the past 2 years and with request & referrals growing a new vehicle is required to assist the older members of the dispersed communities of South Lochaber.
The first cheque for £152 on it's way to the Abbeyfield Care Home in Ballachulish - Thanks for those who took part in the pub quiz and the raffle. 
We are hoping to hit the target by the end of the year so when our staff pester you to part with your hard earned cash please buy a raffle ticket & help support this worthwhile cause.

We've gone Nuts!


You know how it goes, you wrestle with these blasted little foil packets and eventually the bag let's go and half the contents end up on the bar floor......until now.

So we've listened to our customers  - and their colourful language - and added a selection of their favourite snacks including Chilli peanuts & Wasabi peas for those who like it hot. They taste great and are the perfect accompaniment with a pint or two when visiting Clachaig.

Guaranteed the best imperialist titbit's since chaffinches earlobes, badgers noses, ocelot spleen & wolf nipple chips...So get 'em while they're hot they're lovely.

Brian!
