The Dochas Fund is a Scottish Charity that raises money to help people affected by Motor Neurone Disease (MND) and Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS). On 12 April 2007 The Princess Royal opened the new Dochas Gallery.  The new Gallery provides:

• A Carers' Centre for those affected by neurological conditions, including MND or GBS - the first of its kind in the UK.  The facility provides use of a counselling room and support from trained counsellors, as well as access to current information and research about MND & GBS.
• A community exhibition space.  The Gallery displays the work of the late John Paterson, co-founder of The Dochas Fund, as well as that of other local artists.  Visitors also have the opportunity to buy prints and cards produced from John's work.
• A permanent home for The Dochas Fund.  The building includes office and storage space, essential for the Fund to continue its fight against MND & GBS.
• An enclosed garden space and seating area adjacent to the building.  The outdoor area is open to all visitors to the Gallery.
