Drumdarroch Snack Shack

We have built a “hydration station” for the use of residents, visitors, and staff.

We are calling it the “Drumdarroch Snack Shack”. There are juices, fruit flavoured water, crisps, fruit and snacks. Please help yourself!

(No, the whisky in the display cabinet in the background is not part of the Snack Shack!!)

Silent Auction Fundraiser at Drumdarroch

Drumdarroch held a fundraising silent auction and buttery morning on 27th July at our local church hall.
The event was well attended with those coming to buy from the auction and some just in for a buttery, a coffee and a catch up with neighbours.
10 of our residents also attended, seeing old neighbours they hadn’t seen in a long time.
We also had a raffle and tombola stand. It was a brilliant day with lots of laughter!
We raised over £1600, which is a fantastic boost to our residents’ activities fund.

We wish to thank all who donated goods, those who parted with their hard-earned cash on the day and all our lovely volunteers.
We couldn’t have done it without each and every one of you!!
