<dc:title>Merkinch Welfare Hall</dc:title>
<dc:description>&lt;p&gt;A 1.2M restoration project for Merkinch Welfare Hall. The Hall was built in 1914 by the Catch My Pal Union.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thanks to the intervention of Merkinch Enterprise and feasibility studies carried out by the Highland Buildings Preservation Trust, a new use has been found for the hall.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The &quot;Fit for the Future&quot; project and a 1.2M multi funded building contract is currently underway to save and restore this listed building to its former glory.&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
