K Gow The Herald We are ALL different. You say Jura, Islay & Colonsay are lumped together for reporting & admin & therefore top-down schemes. In SIMD, Eigg, Rum, Muck & Canna are put together with West Ardnamurchan - not an island & def not the same! Scottish Rural Network Scot Gov Rural Scottish Islands Federation

This is an amazing facility - well done all - tremendous effort over 10 years Isle of Eigg @dtascot bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Housing must have its own seat at the Cabinet table to ensure the needs of those suffering in this housing emergency are heard and fully represented.

Looking forward to screening MUCH ADO ABOUT DYING doc from Cosmic Cat Films here on Eigg next Thursday 9th May as part of GoodLifeDeathGrief #DemystifyDeath

20+ folk from Eigg, Rum, Muck & Canna met with Transport Scotland this eve to talk about improving communications, better accessibility, & greater integration of ferries with trains & buses. Looking forward to seeing their action plan & timeline to achieve all we suggested. #optimism

New Isle of Eigg community hub opens next to the Hebridean island’s pier. An Laimhrig – Gaelic for “safe harbour”– includes a grocery shop, café and bar, craft shop and base for an adventure activities business. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Isle of Eigg CalMac Ferries Fantastic to see this phase completed and take part in the opening. Powered by #renewableenergy read more about the electric scheme here:

I trust Isle of Eigg emphasised the importance of retaining the option of biomass heating in rural & island locations, and why a rethink of recent Scottish Government policy on this is urgently needed.

👏Rhoda Meek Spot on. This is no time for nuance
Shockingly, the Local Government, Housing and Planning Committee evidence session on Tues revealed the year-old £25m rural key worker housing fund has built ZERO new homes. The reason? Only local authorities & RSLs are eligible to apply 1/5

This new community hub looks fantastic Isle of Eigg !

We were super excited to be there for the latest stage in the Isle of Eigg community ownership journey! bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Hi Scot Gov Engagement and Transport Scotland
Is the closing date for the Islands Connectivity Plan 3rd or 6th May? Between you, you've given two different dates. Online it says 3rd - frustrating for anyone aiming for the 6th & then finding they've missed it

Good pics on the BBC too!
