It also sells Ordnance Survey Maps, Compasses, Step Counters, T-shirts, belt bags, pens, pencils and badges 

The Centre also provides an up-to-date weather report. 

In addition, The Wildcat Centre also houses -

The Millenium Book of Newtonmore 

A  photographic & handwritten record of the people of Newtonmore at the turn of the 21st century. 

Everyone in the village was given the chance to take part by providing a photo of themselves and writing a bit about themselves and their lives.

The result is a fascinating record of a Highland community in 1999.  

The book is beautifully bound in three volumes which are kept in a specially commissioned cabinet in the Wildcat Centre
