Faster regulatory decision making. Tougher action on non-residency. The Crofting Commission is changing. If you have the skills to help with that please consider applying to join the board. If not please share the link below far and wide. Huge thanks. crofting.scotland.gov.uk/recruitment-of…

Scotland has one of the most concentrated land ownership patterns in Europe. We also invented one of the most effective small scale regulated land tenure systems in the world. Time now to modernise and make more of that system. Can you help? crofting.scotland.gov.uk/recruitment-of…

Section 5AA of the Crofters Act - "A crofter must be ordinarily resident on, or within 32 kilometres of, that crofter's croft." That seems clear enough...

Much talk about land reform. 10% of Scotland's land is already under a form of regulated tenure. Interested in helping to modernise that system? crofting.scotland.gov.uk/recruitment-of…

In 1886 we enacted one of the most radical pieces of land reform ever seen in this country. It remains alive and well. Interested in helping to keep it that way? crofting.scotland.gov.uk/news/27-may-20…

Something rather special about being able to walk into a hospital off the street and donate 600ml of your own plasma to random strangers who you will never meet and whose names you will never know. Solidarity.

Andrew Thin Really satisfying to give blood. A simple act of citizenship - and good biscuits, after. I had to stop years ago (too anaemic) but really enjoyed it for the decades I was able, and wish I still could. 👍🩸☺️
