OFFICE RENOVATION

Our premises have now entered Phase 2 of 4 in our planned programme of building works and enhancements. These improvements are designed to further develop our facilities and the level of service we offer to families.

As a result of this we wanted to let families know that our main offices in Inverlochy are currently undergoing a complete renovation. Once finalised this will provide larger offices for families making funeral arrangements and general enquiries, it will also offer a welcoming and comfortable reception area.

During this time, you’ll find us next door in our new building, Àite Sìth where we remain fully operational and here to help as always.

Thank you for your patience and understanding as we continue to make improvements to better serve the Lochaber community.

If you need any assistance, please don’t hesitate to contact us on 01397 701110 or visit us at Àite Sìth, Inverlochy, Fort William, PH33 6NB.
