Energy bills are killing our Isle of Skye community hub. 

We are a small community in the Sleat peninsula in south Skye that has fought back from depopulation to build a modern community hub and boost our population to its highest since 1945.

Punishingly high fuels bills - £30,000 in 2023 - put that at risk.

Camuscross and Duisdale needs your help to keep our community revival alive.

We urgently need £20,000 

For every £1 you donate, Aviva Community Fund will match a single donation per donor, up to £250 per individual donation.  So, if you donate £5, it becomes £10. If you donate £250, it becomes £500.  Any donations over £250 will have a flat £250 contribution from the Aviva Community Fund. Remember to choose a reward!

If we can raise £20,000 we can:

• Install solar PV and solar thermal to save energy costs and reduce carbon emissions. We can get a grant but need to find 20% of the costs.
• Make our woodchip boiler more efficient.

If we can raise £25,000, we can

• Grow some of our food, install composters and reduce food waste

Our beautiful, big community hub, built in 2016 has a shop, PO, café, community hall and meeting room, outdoor children’s play area, EV chargers and a 5-berth campervan site.  It employs 7 full time equivalents and puts over £400,000 into the local economy annually. 

Our hub is vital for folk of all ages, it keeps us connected and protected and we welcome visitors from all over the world.
