  • May 2019 Staffing Assynt Foundation (AF) Is Currently Going Through a Period of Staff Re-Structuring
    Assynt Foundation - News For Associate Members - May 2019 Staffing Assynt Foundation (AF) is currently going through a period of staff re-structuring. Rachael and Sam Hawkins have moved on from Glencanisp where they spent 2 years providing high quality hospitality in the Lodge. Jane Tulloch has stepped down as a director of Assynt Foundation and has taken up the position of Lodge Manager until the end of this season. Rebecca Macleod is the Administrator and Stuart Belshaw is the Estate Worker for the Foundation. Glencanisp Lodge The Lodge is being run as a Bed and Breakfast establishment for this summer along with special events such as the recent car rally. Conservation and Deer The deer - management on Glencanisp and Drumrunie for the coming season has been leased to a contractor. He and his team will also carry out the Habitat Impact Assessment which is part of the West Sutherland Deer Management Group South Sub-Group’s plan (available on their website). AF has applied to the Agri-Environment Climate Scheme for Moorland Management. This will cover 13,635 hectares (33,700 acres or about three-quarters of our land) and is for the conservation of peatland and restoration of blanket bog on both estates. The new native woodland establishment at Ledbeg continues where the local planting team are planting broadleaves on the site of a wood that was there in 1774. The south side of Loch Assynt is under consideration for new planting which will try to link all the bits of existing woods there. AF is grateful for help from Coigach and Assynt Living Landscape and The Woodland Trust with the moorland and woodland work.
