Welcome to our Cromarty Care Project
Cromarty Care Project became a registered charity in 2015. We aim to improve health and wellbeing in the town of Cromarty. We want to help make care available to those who need it, with local people caring for local people. We are also keen to work on projects which give immediate benefit to our community, reducing social isolation and improving health and wellbeing generally.
Cromarty Care Project is managed by a board of trustees who are all local volunteers.

Cromarty Care Project received The Queen's Award for Voluntary Service for our work in Cromarty during the Covid pandemic.
Donations
We have two separate funds. The General Fund and the Cromarty Crisis Fund (CCF).
General Fund
This is the fund we have been using to support families during the Covid-19 pandemic. Any donated funds will be used for the benefit of residents within the Cromarty and District Community Council Area.
Current projects are the Cromarty Winter Warmth Fund and the Cromarty Community Sharing Larder. These projects assist with heating costs and essential groceries for families in need in the area.
Cromarty Crisis Fund
The Cromarty Crisis Fund (CCF) is a new fund that we are building up. This fund will be ring fenced for the use of the Cromarty community in future years. The idea for this arose from the Covid-19 pandemic. Any monies donated to CCF will not be used for current spending and will form the bank account deposit for the new initiative.
