Highlands and Islands Labour MSP, Rhoda Grant, said “I am delighted to hear that the extension to the Health Centre has been completed.
“The community, working together with the GP practice, did a great job in raising the issue and pressing for the build to be continued. Working alongside my fellow MSPs, Fergus Ewing and Edward Mountain, I was pleased to bolster the community’s efforts to get the Scottish Government to commit to providing the remaining funding that was needed.
“While it was regrettable that the local health staff had to add this issue to their already challenging work commitments on the front line, it nonetheless shows that the power of communities working together to tackle the red tape can’t be underestimated.
“I look forward to visiting in coming weeks to see the expansion and am pleased that the community and the staff now have a building that is fit for purpose.”
