NHS Highland are working with the local community to build a new hospital for the Lochaber area. The hospital will replace the current Belford Hospital and will be situated on the Blar Mhor site, across from the Fort William Health Centre.


The redesign will include the services that will be going into the new hospital as well as those delivered in the community.

You can see all the background information about this project on the NHS Highland website. We plan to share updates and all future engagement opportunities on the Engagement Hub.

    Highland Health and Social Care Partnership are working with In Control Scotland and Lochaber communities to start conversations about how care and support could work better for everyone in Lochaber.

    Over the coming months we will be coming out to your local community to hear about your experience of social care and have conversations about what the future of social care could look like for you.

    We will be using the Engagement Hub to share updates, letting you know how you can take part in this work and when we will be visiting your community.

    We will also be sharing printable information and ask if you could share these with members of your community who may not be able to take part in online conversations.

    Our goal is to reach as many people as we can so we can truly understand peoples experience of social care and we can have meaningful conversations about what the future may look like for you and your community.
