  • Ross of Mull & Iona Community Plan
    Ross of Mull & Iona Community Plan 2011 In 2010 the Ross of Mull (including Pennyghael and Tiroran) and Iona were identified by Highlands and Islands Enterprise as being an area which could receive support through their Growth at the Edge (GatE) programme. This involved supporting an anchor organisation, in this case Mull and Iona Community Trust, to facilitate community growth through the employment of a Local Development Officer and the creation of a Community Plan based on consultation with the local community and a socio-economic analysis. The project is funded by Highlands and Islands Enterprise & LEADER. The document will always be open to suggestions and changes from the community and should not be regarded as being inflexible.

The plan is an opportunity for our communities to control our development and implement projects, which will be of direct benefit to the Ross of Mull and Iona.
