    About Columba 1400

    What’s in a name?  
    Our founder Norman Drummond was inspired by the life and message of St Columba – someone who certainly wasn’t afraid to transform his life, make a new start and release his inner greatness for the good of others. Why 1400? St Columba died on Iona on 9 June 597 and, exactly 1400 years later, Norman and the community members started our work with just a piece of land, an idea and six values.

    Since then, we’ve built a stunning leadership centre in Staffin on Skye and opened a centre at Ardoch on the banks of Loch Lomond, two beautiful locations that inspire our work every day. We’ve adapted, creating new ways to reach people through the recent pandemic. But most of all, we’ve helped over 10,000 people transform their lives. Because, as we like to say, you can go anywhere from here.

    Columba 1400 Skye in Staffin is the home of Columba 1400 and was opened by our Patron, HRH The Princess Royal, on Saturday 3rd June 2000. Columba 1400 Loch Lomond at Ardoch, our second centre, was similarly opened by HRH The Princess Royal on Monday 21st June 2010.
