Partnerships for Wellbeing

This week PFW staff and some of our Community Transport volunteers took part in Christmas Jumper week.

As we have different volunteers working throughout the week, we decided to have an entire week dedicated to Christmas Jumpers, hats and accessories!! Jeff obviously has a entire wardrobe of Christmas attire!

We held a collection for Alzheimer's Scotland. Our manager, Jeff, is planning another fundraising event for this cause, and we will reveal the total amount raised in January.

Staff and volunteers were all happy to take part and we think you'll agree that there was great effort made by all. If you look closely, you may see that Chris has decorated the interior of his car, once more.

We were delighted that our regular Monday driver, Duncan, took part in this event, despite being housebound after surgery!

On behalf of Jeff, Fiona, Jayne, Hayley, Marie, Linda and Ewan and all our wonderful volunteers at Partnerships For Wellbeing, we wish you all a peaceful Christmas.

We will now be taking a well deserved break and will be back on Monday 5th January 2026.

A fabulous turn out for Tain walking group Christmas lunch at the golf club yesterday!
Unfortunately the walk beforehand had to be cancelled due to Storm Bram still making its presence felt!

Another lovely PFW Christmas lunch photo!
This time it’s the Fortrose health walk group who met at Fortrose Golf Club yesterday. The meal was arranged by group member, Ann Spree.
23 walkers attended and walk leader, John Danby, said the Christmas meal is a great morale booster. In addition Santa turned up for a surprise visit to make a presentation to Val Cartwright who has been a volunteer with the group since 2017!
Happy Festive season everyone !💐🎉

More PFW festive fun was captured at Lochardil House. The hotel is a regular venue for our monthly Friendship Club lunches. For Christmas, our talented club co-ordinator Hayley presented members with her cleverly designed pop-out framed plant pots...which takes art to another dimension.

Thanks to Olivia, Dee & Jude, our volunteers who run the walk at UHI campus on Thursdays for organising the walk to Howdens garden centre for lunch last week.

It’s great to see how many folk are coming along after the walk started up in April this year.

It’s a great walk if you can’t walk too far, walk slowly, or need to take a rest-stopping to see how the young swans have grown over the Summer has been a focal point of the walk.

The walk is going ahead for a couple more weeks but if you are planning a New Year resolution to be more active in 2026 please get in touch with Jayne Preece, Health Walks & Events manager at: jayne@p4w.org.uk
