Seaman's Hall: Our Community Hub




At the heart of Nairn is Seaman's Hall, our Community Hub
Seaman’s Hall serves as a vibrant and inclusive space for the entire community. It offers a welcoming environment for volunteers, local groups, and public events.
The Hall is also available for hire, hosting everything from fitness classes to private celebrations like weddings and parties, making it a central venue for connection and creativity.
Our workshop
Our mission is to divert single-use plastics, tools, and timber from landfills.
We do this by repurposing them into beautiful and functional items. In our workshop, waste materials are rediscovered, reformed, and reimagined into unique items - handmade & upcycled, by our skilled team of staff and volunteers.
