Portree & Braes Community Trust works to create a vibrant, sustainable future for the people of Portree, Braes, and the surrounding area. Our purpose is to stimulate and coordinate the economic, cultural, and environmental regeneration of the community, always guided by local priorities.
The Trust provides a structure through which land and assets can be held on behalf of the community, ensuring they are used for the benefit of all. Projects are led by sub-groups of members and directors, reporting to the Trust committee, which acts as an umbrella organisation to bring initiatives together.
Our work is wide-ranging. It includes securing land and buildings for community use, supporting renewable energy projects, organising local events, and improving access to education and training opportunities. We also work closely with existing groups and public bodies, helping to access funding streams and opportunities that would otherwise not be available.
Everything we do is rooted in the belief that local people should shape the future of their own community. By listening to, and working with, residents, the Trust helps ensure Portree and Braes remains a strong, resilient, and welcoming place to live, work, and visit.
By leaving a gift in your Will, you can help ensure this work continues for generations. Every legacy, large or small, strengthens the community, protects our heritage, and creates new opportunities. Your generosity will make a lasting difference to the place and people you care about most.
