🆘 Your Community Needs You ✨🙏📆 🆘

We are in desperate need of committee members and volunteers. We have only 5 of a committee at present and very few more volunteers, we would love to add to this. There’s no big commitment, help out as and when you can. Give input on how we can improve the area and any events we can put on to boost the community. Without more help, we can’t continue! Please come along to the AGM - Monday 7th September @ 7pm and help to improve our ever growing community!!

Colour Run & Fun Day this coming Saturday 22nd August 🧡

It’s been one week since our Day Out for the Annual P2B Over 60’s Bus Trip 🚌

The annual P2B Over 60’s Bus Trip took place on Saturday, 8 August, and proved to be another hugely enjoyable outing, with around 30 participants braving the familiar Lewis wind and rain. Spirits were high from the outset, and the laughter never once gave way to the weather.
The day began with a scenic journey around the Westside and on to Ness, with a generous “light lunch” at Gearrannan Blackhouse Village—though most agreed it was closer to a feast. As an added treat, the group was delighted by a selection of traditional songs from Dolly Angie, whose performance brought warmth and heritage to the heart of the visit. Those feeling adventurous enjoyed a wander through the historic village, taking in its unique atmosphere and heritage.
From there, the group continued to the Port of Ness before stopping at the Charity Shop and Cross Stores for some classic Niseach-style browsing. The trip rounded off with a lovely evening meal at the Borve Country House Hotel before everyone headed home, tired but happy.
P2B extends sincere thanks to Cllr George Murray for supporting the trip through Ward Funding, and to Point and Sandwick Trust for their continued financial backing. Grateful thanks also go to A Maclennan Motors for providing the bus and to our excellent driver, Iain. Appreciation is also due to Mairi and her team at Gearrannan Blackhouse Village, the staff at Borve Country House Hotel, and all those who helped make the day run smoothly.

A memorable day was enjoyed by all, and we look forward to doing it again next year!!
