OBAN Communities Trust has been awarded £946,000 by the Big Lottery Fund to help develop Oban’s former Rockfield School as a community and cultural hub known as the Rockfield Centre.
Once completed, the centre will feature performance, exhibition and workshop spaces for arts and heritage projects, an enterprise centre including a bakery, training canteen, and hot-desking and co-working facilities.
Chairman Gordon McNab hailed the grant as a ‘huge vote of confidence’
