AULTBEA & GAIRLOCH MEDICAL PRACTICE FLEXIBLE GP OPPORTUNITY Retirement has created an opportunity for an enthusiastic General Practitioner to join our relaxed and friendly team.

Plus we are just over an hour from Ullapool, which hosts the ferry service to the Western Isles.

In the interest of attracting the best candidate(s) the post on offer can be flexed to suit your personal circumstances. The job here can work for an experienced GP looking for a change of environment but would equally be a good fit for a recently qualified GP with an interest in rural medicine.

Purchased by the vendors in 2005 the business was operated as a self-catering business until 2010 and since that time has operated as a Hotel, latterly trading in wet sales only. Due to the need to upgrade fire safety requirements the Hotel has not traded with letting rooms in recent years but we understand that bringing the Hotel into full operation again would be a fairly straight forward matter and the vendors have full details of the requirements to do so. The footprint of the property offers excellent amenity space extending to circa 1.5 acres. The internal aspects of the property require a degree of redecoration. The vendors accept that new owners would be better placed to develop the business both in terms of facilities and trade.

Scottish Fire and Rescue Service Quarterly
Scottish Fire and Rescue Service Performance Report - Highland Quarterly Performance Report 1 July - 30 September 2013 Introduction Welcome to the second report of the quarterly Performance Reports for 2013/14. This report provides summaries of our fire safety activities, statistical and benchmarking information for the Highland area, and extracts of incidents that occurred between 1 July and 30 September 2013. 1. Community Safety Activity Community Engagement - Activities We promote fire safety and engage with the community through a number of different initiatives, which include working with partner agencies in promoting road safety, addressing anti-social behaviour, and providing fire and road safety advice to the community in general. We undertook a variety of community engagement activities during this quarter, which included: Safe Highlander - Wick We supported the delivery of Safe Highlander in Wick during this quarter with approximately 400 primary school children from schools throughout the area attending. This is a multi agency event attended by representatives from Red Cross, Police Scotland, SSPCA, Drug & Alcohol, Internet Safety as well as the Fire and Rescue Service. It is an educational activity based on a partnership approach, aiming to tackle challenging issues of community safety and crime prevention. Children following the event become more aware of personal safety, potentially avoid becoming victims of crime, understand how to react to emergency situations and encourage good citizenship. Scottish Fire and Rescue Service staff advise and educate pupils to recognise fire hazards in the home and understand what to do in the event of a smoke alarm going off at home and the importance of working smoke alarms and fire action plans.

Office for Nuclear Regulation Report ONR-COP-PAR-16-025 TRIM Ref: 2016/479238 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Determination of the Off-site Emergency Planning and Prior Information Areas for the Loch Ewe Operational Berth: Radiation (Emergency Preparedness and Public Information) Regulations 2001 The Office for Nuclear Regulation (ONR) is responsible for regulating the GB nuclear industry in order to protect the health and safety of employees and the public against risks of harm arising from ionising radiations. ONR is the regulatory authority for Radiation (Emergency Preparedness and Public Information) Regulations 2001 (REPPIR) on nuclear licensed sites, Ministry of Defence (MOD) Authorised nuclear sites and nuclear warship sites. ONR’s responsibilities include a legal duty, where it is concluded that there is a potential for a reasonably foreseeable radiation emergency (as defined in REPPIR), to determine an off-site emergency planning area (i.e. the area within which, in ONR’s opinion, any member of the public is likely to be affected by such an emergency). In these cases, there is also a legal duty, under the same Regulations, for ONR to determine an area within which prior information is to be distributed to the public.

Tourism Facilities & Visitor Services Baseline Report 2019
Tourism Facilities & Visitor Services Baseline Report 2019 Produced as part of the Wester Ross Destination Management Plan preliminary research Context Upwards of an estimated c.100,000 tourists visit Wester Ross each year, sustaining local communities through their input to the local economy and tourism accounts for 35% of employment1. However, in the current climate (Summer 2019) there are concerns that a rise in tourism of up to 27% (estimate2) over the past few years may not be sustainable. Although a different perspective is that this has followed a deep recession in the tourism industry and visitor numbers have yet to return to the high levels enjoyed during the 1990s. The current situation is exacerbated by Local Authority and Public Agency budget cuts which have resulted in plans to close public toilets and a deterioration in road quality. In addition, the type of visitor has changed, Wester Ross is welcoming large amounts of campervans which require waste disposal facilities which are not yet in place. Local people are reporting over-flowing carparks and bins, increasing litter pollution and irresponsible behaviour. It is not unusual for local residents to cite increased litter as a negative aspect of tourism3 and this together with other perceived negative impacts can become challenging to tourism development as the host community begin to view visitors less than favourably. Therefore, the World Tourism Organisation advises regions to adopt a model for tourism management which considers the social as well as economic and environmental impacts of tourism4. Mass tourism is not going away5, and currently, there is no hard-empirical evidence on visitor numbers, expectations and behaviour or condition of assets in Wester Ross which would allow communities, businesses, local authorities and public agencies to plan proactively.
