The Highlands is the area north and west of the Highland Boundary Fault (from Arran and Helensburgh on the west coast stretching across to Stonehaven in the east). It is the uppermost part of Scotland (made up of six smaller regions) and home to famous attractions such as Ben Nevis and Loch Ness, towns (notably Fort William, Nairn and Aviemore) and the “City of the Highlands” - Inverness. Traditionally visitors wishing to experience the beautiful Scottish outdoors will travel to the Highlands to visit the scenic lochs, tall snow capped, mountains, vast glens, ancient monuments as well as the beaches and bays along North Scotland’s iconic coastline. Seals, puffins, whales and dolphins are often spotted on these shores. You may want to try to catch a glimpse of the infamous Aurora Borealis (the Northern Lights), walk amongst the The Highlands varied wildlife and flora or appreciate the breath-taking Scottish landscapes as part of your Highland experience.

  • The Kirk in the Garden of Evie
    THE KIRK IN THE GARDEN OF EVIE A Thumbnail Sketch of the History of the Church in Evie Trevor G Hunt Minister of the linked Churches of Evie, Firth and Rendall, Orkney First Published by Evie Kirk Session Evie, Orkney. 1987 Republished 1996 ComPrint, Orkney 908056 Forward to the 1987 Publication This brief history was compiled for the centenary of the present Evie Church building and I am indebted to all who have helped me in this work. I am especially indebted to the Kirk’s present Session Clerk, William Wood of Aikerness, who furnished useful local information, searched through old Session Minutes, and compiled the list of ministers for Appendix 3. Alastair Marwick of Whitemire, Clerk to the Board, supplied a good deal of literature, obtained a copy of the Title Deeds, gained access to the “Kirk aboon the Hill”, and conducted a tour (even across fields in his car) to various sites. He also contributed valuable local information and I am grateful for all his support. Thanks are also due to Margaret Halcro of Lower Crowrar, Rendall, for information about her name sake, and to the Moars of Crook, Rendall, for other Halcro family details. And to Sheila Lyon (Hestwall, Sandwick), who contributed information about Margaret Halcro (of the seventeenth century!). TREVOR G HUNT Finstown Manse March 1987 Foreword to the 1996 Publication Nearly ten years on seemed a good time to make this history available again, and to use the advances in computer technology to improve its appearance and to make one or two minor corrections.. I was also anxious to include the text of the history as a page on the Evie, Firth and Rendall Churches’ Internet site for reference and, since revision was necessary to do this, it was an opportunity to republish in printed form.

  • NHS Orkney Asset Management Summary 2019 to 2029
    Appendix 5 NHS Orkney Asset Management Summary 2019 to 2029 Planning Regionally, Delivering Locally 1. Introduction NHS Orkney is the smallest territorial health board in Scotland and is responsible for the health care of the population of Orkney. The Board employs around 620 staff and provides a comprehensive range of primary, community-based and acute hospital services. This year has seen the handover of the new Balfour hospital and healthcare facility. This exciting opportunity provides state of the art facilities which is matched by ambitious plans for services and staff across Orkney. 2018-2019 was the last complete financial year prior to the completion of the new Balfour hospital and healthcare facility. It was not however, the sole focus of attention and many other aspects of service delivery have continued to be developed. Although small in scale, NHS Orkney delivers a full range of clinical services, hospital and community based and in common with many other health systems across Scotland face challenges in terms of meeting rising demand, rising costs and perhaps most significantly recruitment to key posts, clinical and non-clinical. 2. Strategic Plan The full scale of NHS Orkney’s priorities for investment aimed at responding to both the current and future challenges it faces, and to deliver its emerging service model include: • Development of integrated hospital and health care facilities incorporating a Rural General Hospital supported by appropriate community rehabilitation and enablement services. • Development of two new primary care hubs to the East and West Mainland. • Improvements to primary and community care facilities to ensure they support the provision of safe and sustainable clinical services to each local community.

  • Assc Sectoral Survey Into Self-Caterer Access to Covid-19 Business Support
    Sectoral Survey into Self-Caterer Access to Covid-19 Business Support Week 3 Association of Scotland’s Self-Caterers Supporting self-catering in Scotland ASSC SECTORAL SURVEY INTO SELF-CATERER ACCESS TO COVID-19 BUSINESS SUPPORT Introduction • The Association of Scotland’s Self-Caterers (ASSC) is the leading source of knowledge on short-term letting and holiday homes in Scotland. The ASSC conducted a Scotland-wide sectoral survey relating to issues concerning eligibility and access to the various packages of economic support from the Scottish and UK Governments in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. • The online survey elicited 629 responses from self-caterers in Scotland, from both ASSC members and non-ASSC members alike, in 31/32 of Scotland’s local authorities. • The results offer valuable insights into the experiences and problems faced by Scottish self-catering operators in accessing the support required to safeguard their business in a sector that has been estimated to contribute over £723m each year to the Scottish economy. Survey Overview • The ASSC ran a third round of their online survey consisting of 18 questions. This was publicised via ASSC newsletters, as well as on the ASSC’s social media pages on Twitter and Facebook. • In 24 hours, the survey generated 629 responses. 260 were from members of the ASSC and 369 responses were from non-members. Summary It is hoped that the survey results will continue to inform discussion regarding the support required for self-catering operators in Scotland to ensure that no sector is left behind by government, as well as what changes are necessary to protect livelihoods in what has been a key component part of Scotland’s tourism offering for a generation.

I had always wanted to visit Orkney because my great-grandmother, Isabella Allan, was born on the tiny island of Stronsay in 1843. By any standards, these islands have an extraordinary human history, stretching from Neolithic times, some 5,000 years ago to the two great wars of the 20th century.
