Wed, 16 Nov 2011 11:49:10 +0000 Centre Manager 427277 Hundreds of projects around Britain have been battling it out over the past 6 months in a bid for funding. We are the only charity in the Highlands to have made it through to the final vote. Our project is based on the practical things we can do to the centre to make it more efficient and so save money on our electricity bill.
We have had a great deal of support but need the whole of the Highlands to get behind us and vote for us.
Strathpeffer Community Association is hoping to increase the efficiency of the community centre by putting in sensor lights, new thermostat controls, automated front doors and improved insulation. Please sign-up and vote for us in the small project category. Thank you!

The Kite Runner tells the story of Amir, a young boy from the Wazir Akbar Khan district of Kabul, who betrayed his best friend Hassan, the son of his father's Hazara servant, and lives in regret. The story is set against a backdrop of tumultuous events, from the fall of the monarchy in Afghanistan through the Soviet invasion, the mass exodus of refugees to Pakistan and the United States, and the rise of the Taliban regime. Hassan dies before the end of the book, and before Amir has a chance to see him again.
