The group currently has 30 members, some of whom are exhibiting as part of this studio trail.

This studio trail is part of that economy with artists opening their studios (some for the first time) and encouraging visitors to interact with their work, and maybe, purchase a symbol of their visit. 1 CRAFT TRAIL GLANSIN GLASS Local lass making fused glassware which includes jewellery, tableware and art pieces, inspired by her stunning homeland.

  • Shetland Inter-Island Transport Study
    Shetland Inter-Island Transport Study Fair Isle Public Engagement Meeting Wednesday 31st August 2016 – 1700–2000 Fair Isle Hall Peter Brett Associates LLP Shetland Inter-Island Transport Study Welcome to the Fair Isle Public Engagement Meeting for the Shetland Inter-Island Transport Study (SIITS). The Shetland inter-island transport network, which consists of a combination of ferry and air services, connects nine islands with Shetland mainland. These lifeline connections support the economies of Shetland’s island communities as well as providing personal accessibility to employment opportunities and access to key services such as education, health and leisure opportunities. The inter-island transport network has been supported in both capital and revenue terms by the Council over many years. Whilst this remains the case, ageing assets, escalating costs and a reduction in the funding available to local authorities has led to a need to consider the future of the inter-island transport network at the strategic level. To this end, the Council, in partnership with ZetTrans, Transport Scotland and Highlands & Islands Enterprise, commissioned the Shetland Inter-Island Transport Study (SIITS), with a view to developing and appraising options for the future of the inter-island transport services. The purpose of this exercise is to determine the appropriate level of service for each island / island group and the funding implications of this. This will provide the Council and ZetTrans with an evidence base to inform discussions with Scottish Government. To this end, the study team, led by Peter Brett Associates LLP, has developed, appraised & costed a set of capital (e.g. vessels, harbours, fixed links, airfields and aircraft (where appropriate)) and revenue (i.e.

  • Records of Species and Subspecies Recorded in Scotland on up to 20 Occasions
    Records of species and subspecies recorded in Scotland on up to 20 occasions In 1993 SOC Council delegated to The Scottish Birds Records Committee (SBRC) responsibility for maintaining the Scottish List (list of all species and subspecies of wild birds recorded in Scotland). In turn, SBRC appointed a subcommittee to carry out this function. Current members are Dave Clugston, Ron Forrester, Angus Hogg, Bob McGowan Chris McInerny and Roger Riddington. In 1996, Peter Gordon and David Clugston, on behalf of SBRC, produced a list of records of species recorded in Scotland on up to 5 occasions (Gordon & Clugston 1996). Subsequently, SBRC decided to expand this list to include all acceptable records of species recorded on up to 20 occasions, and to incorporate subspecies with a similar number of records (Andrews & Naylor 2002). The last occasion that a complete list of records appeared in print was in The Birds of Scotland, which included all records up until 2004 (Forrester et al. 2007). During the period from 2002 until 2013, amendments and updates to the list of records appeared regularly as part of SBRC’s Scottish List Subcommittee’s reports in Scottish Birds. Since 2014 these records have appear on the SOC’s website, a significant advantage being that the entire list of all records for such species can be viewed together (Forrester 2014). The Scottish List Subcommittee are now updating the list annually. The current update includes records from the British Birds Rarities Committee’s Report on rare birds in Great Britain in 2015 (Hudson 2016) and SBRC’s Report on rare birds in Scotland, 2015 (McGowan & McInerny 2017).
