SFF Services Limited (SFFSL) are wholly owned by The Scottish Fishermen’s Federation and were delighted to be a sponsor of Clan’s Light The North Trail. Employees chose Hope is the Anchor of Life by local artist Moira Milne as their favourite design and the company were then allocated as it’s sponsor.

“We wanted our sponsored lighthouse to be situated at a fishing port which is why Hope is the Anchor of Life was situated in Scalloway, Shetland for the trail.

After the trail the lighthouse were auctioned to raise fund for Clan Cancer Support. We were hoping to successful in bidding for our sponsored lighthouse which we were going to donate to Greyhope Bay. Unfortunately we missed out on this lighthouse but we did have a back up plan!”

“We successfully bid on a large blank lighthouse and commissioned Moira Milne to paint after giving her a design brief. This lighthouse will be donated to Greyhope Bay by Marine Environmental Solution (MES) which is a subsidiary of SFF Services Limited.

“This has all been possible by the generosity of Bon Accord Centre in providing Moira with a unit to paint the lighthouse and for us to tell our story.

The unit is now Moira’s artist studio and passers-by can watch her as she creates her masterpiece!”

You can find Moira and the lighthouse at the crossing between our Bon Accord and St Nicholas malls until mid August.
