West Harris Trust has been awarded £1,090,247 from the Big Lottery Fund for a community
enterprise centre at Horgabost..
As a hub for the community it will provide a hall, cafe and treatment room, as well

in the trust’s work and the project will play a key role in retaining and attracting
new people and businesses to live and work in West Harris.”
