Highland Community Awards
Formerly known as our COMMUNITY GRANT AWARDS SCHEME
The community we live and work in is important to us.
We recognised that there was a huge amount of charity and community work happening across the area and so we launched our Community Grant Scheme in 2015 to try and help. We will be relaunching as soon as circumstances allow as the “Highland Community Awards” and further details of how to apply will follow as soon as possible.
Our Highland Community Awards are aimed at helping to support local communities across the Highlands and Islands, and is open to all local groups, charities and organisations.
Details of our new Highland Community Awards will and an application form will follow.

Testimonials
Professional, friendly and helpful
Delighted with the service I have received from your lettings team. Very professional, friendly and helpful.
Friendly & Professional
Over the last 15 years I have used Macleod and MacCallum for buying and selling houses as well as managing residential lettings. I have always found the staff very friendly and professional. Always happy to discuss various scenarios based upon current market conditions whether it be in property sales or rentals. They have offered sound advice and provided a very good service throughout.
Excellent Service
Excellent service from the first viewing to getting handed over the keys to our rented property. Well recommended. Agents were very helpful and were just a phone call away when we needed them
Knowledgeable & Supportive
In September 2014 my wife and I sought tenders from Letting Agents to manage six new build flats which were nearing completion and this is when we first met Sarah-Anne Gow of Mac and Mac. During the time they have been managing our flats, we have been delighted with the friendly, knowledgeable and supportive way their team have undertaken the task and in our view their performance has been ‘superior’.
Completely Satisfied
I’m completely satisfied with your service Aidan, I can say it was super easy, super smooth, no hassle or any issue whatsoever during this process. I felt like you did everything what you can on the short timescale what we had in this situation, which I really appreciate. I can definitely recommend your service to others and again thank you very much to sort literally everything so quick and so efficient.
Less stressful
We have used the Macleod & MacCallum solicitors, estate agents & financial advisers for numerous years in their various departments within the firm and will continue to do so due to their professionalism and dedication. Without a doubt they have made everything less stressful throughout the process. Once again, many thanks to all members of the team.
Very Professional & Excellent Service
Gemma McClelland from Macleod and MacCallum provided a very professional and excellent service throughout my recent purchase of a property. I am very grateful to her for her legal expertise and very personable manner. I have no hesitation in highly recommending her and should I require the services of a property solicitor again, she would definitely be my first port of call.
Very Approachable & Helpful
Very professional company to deal with. Used them for house sale recently. All staff very approachable and helpful. Communication was good and everything well explained. Special thanks to Lindsay Bishop and Bev for enabling a smooth and quick sale.
Diligence and Professionalism Throughout
I would like to take this opportunity to place on record my thanks and satisfaction with your ongoing work as to the purchase of my property. The process was not as simple as it should have been, but due to your diligence and professionalism throughout the past twelve months we persevered and concluded the sale. Without your support and guidance I would have struggled to have controlled my emotions as to the continued obstacles that were presented to us.
