Help Us support the community in Fort William
For nearly 20 years, Lochaber Hope has been at the heart of our community, delivering confidential and holistic wellbeing services to those in need. We’ve adapted and grown alongside our community, offering counselling for individuals, couples, families, and youth, as well as mentoring, personal development, SQA-accredited training, and employability support.
In 2022, we responded to an urgent new challenge born out of the pandemic: helping those whose lives and mental health had been shattered. With many in our community struggling with despair, addiction, and isolation. We knew we had to do more, and so New Connections was opened.
New Connections
This innovative pilot project was designed to be a space for everyone. To make it happen, we acquired a new building and created a space where people could connect, collaborate and relax.
Thanks to the success of the pilot, we now have a 10-year lease. But to fully realise New Connections’ potential, we need your help.
By supporting this project, you’ll be helping us build brighter futures for individuals and families in Lochaber.
Every donation, big or small, makes a difference. Together, we can ensure that New Connections continues to transform lives for years to come.
