Cafe

The objectives of the charity are:

Waterlines is a visitor centre and coffee shop at Lybster Harbour supported by Lybster Heritage Trust. It was created in 2000 from old buildings left over from the herring fishing boom. It shut during lockdowns and has recently got funding to employ a manager/curator with the aim to develop the space into a community hub, rotating exhibition space and event space as well as its permanent exhibition.

Morvern Community Development Company was set up in 1999 following encouragement from the Morvern Community Council to benefit the community of Morvern in Lochaber. Recent successes include the construction and commissioning of Barr Hydro through our energy subsidiary MorVolts. More details of MorVolts' work can be found on their page on our website - http://www.morvern.org/development/current-projects/renewables/)

The LEDGE is a world-class climbing centre, café, gym and social enterprise

Velocity Café & Bicycle Workshop is a social enterprise based in Inverness. Velocity combines three worlds; a vegetarian café, bicycle workshop and range of projects to promote health, wellbeing and sustainability.

The Repair Cafe was set up in June 2021 by small team of volunteers as part of the drive by the Community Hall moving towards net zero. We hold around 10 events per year to provide a social event and to encourage a repair and reuse culture. We work with other communities within the Highland area and helped the Black Isle, Fort William and Achmore in setting up their own Repair Cafes.

Our core value is to reduce waste. To help our Comunity and surrounding areas (Grantown) achieve this we have created a unique shopping experience. Shopping with us is fun, therapeutic, calming, rewarding... and more! We offer a fantastic selection of refillable wholefoods, oils & vinegars, cleaning products and hair & body products. We are here to help make zero waste and eco-friendly shopping easy for everyone. We aim to source all our products as sustainably as possible and where we can, as local as possible. So you know you are supporting workers who receive a fair wage, good working conditions and protecting our planet.

Stromness Museum are hosting a series of Climate Cafes to engage with different groups of people about Climate Change. They are also integrating climate change into their exhibits.

At Velocity, we’re passionate about promoting active travel as a healthy and sustainable way to travel. Here’s some information and resources to help you make more journeys by bike!
