ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Special thanks to Maise Mackenzie, Finlay MacNeill and the pupils of Strathgarve Primary School for their wonderful drawings which appear throughout this document. Foreword Facal san Toiseach We are committed to giving every child and young person in Highland the best possible start in life. Helping our children to realise their potential is the key to giving them a sense of self-fulfilment and equipping them well for their future. All of the services that support children, families and young people, play a vital part in unlocking the potential of the next generation. This new, Integrated Children’s Plan, ‘For Highland’s Children 2’ provides the family-friendly routemap that we shall follow over the next 3 years. We are determined that the resources of all our services will be managed efficiently to meet the challenges ahead. Wherever possible, new resources will be identified to address gaps in service provision; and existing resources will be redesigned to serve a changing landscape of population and priorities more effectively. The foundation of future Highland prosperity depends on investment in our communities, in our families, and in our children and young people. We shall ensure that Highland is widely recognised as the best place in Scotland to be young; the best place in Scotland for families – to live, to grow, to play, to be educated, to be fulfilled – and given a helping hand as and when required - to realise their full potential. We are committed to service improvement. ’For Highland’s Childrens 2’ is structured to ensure that our children and young people are: Safe; Nurtured; Healthy; Achieving; Active; Respected & Responsible; and Included. This new 3-year plan builds on success. It builds on a model of increasingly collaborative services - services that are focused on the child and her or his changing needs from birth to adulthood. This is an evolutionary process. Front-line service delivery will become better- integrated; with services for our more vulnerable children and families better-targeted. “The right service to each child at the right time.” The Joint Committee on Children and Young People will use this plan to monitor and review progress, ensuring that “all of Highland’s children have the best possible start in life; enjoy being young; and are supported to develop as confident, capable and resilient, to fully maximise their potential.” Alison Magee, Convener Garry Coutts, Chairman 2 The Highland Council NHS Highland Board Introduction Ro-ràdh For Highland’s Children is the integrated Children’s Services Plan for all children & families in Highland. The plan is a living document: updated, monitored and reviewed regularly - and linked with all related local planning arrangements. This second Plan, For Highland’s Children 2 (FHC2), encompasses the vision and the strategy of Highland’s Joint Committee on Children and Young People. FHC2 focuses on planning and development over the period 2005-2008, and takes forward the intent of the first Children’s Plan, to achieve better services, better-integrated provision, and better outcomes for children and families. FHC2 is a comprehensive plan, encompassing universal service provision for children & families – across the Education, Culture & Sport Service of the The Highland Council (THC) and all Child Health services of NHS Highland - as well as the more targeted services such as Social Work. Effectively, it is the Community Plan for Highland’s Children, Young People and Families. The Scottish Executive’s “For Scotland’s Children” Action Plan continues to act as a local template for better-integrated service planning and provision, particularly for children and families with support needs. It takes account of all the associated key national and local plans and strategies and establishes a coherent vision for children and families in this authority. It sets out the local processes for agencies and organisations to come together to assess local needs; identify priorities and objectives; agree implementation strategies and resources to deliver these; and ensure arrangements for monitoring progress. This summary plan presents the big picture. It illustrates how all agencies will endeavour to ensure that all of Highland’s children have the best possible start in life; enjoy being young; and are supported to develop as confident, capable and resilient, to fully maximise their potential. It includes: G a review of the achievements of For Highland’s Children 1; G an updated strategic framework for integrated services; G seven cross cutting themes for children’s services; G a summary of the key actions to support children in need; and G 50 ‘Key Outcomes that will focus activities and help monitor the impact of FHC2s collaborative effort. The full version of FHC2 provides greater information about each of these elements. It also details the operational plans that support the range of proposed actions, strategies and outcome targets. Greater detail about more specific service needs and delivery are linked appropriately to the principal Service, Agency or Area Children’s 3 Services Forum Plans. Review of For Highland’s Children 1: 2001-2004 Lèirmheas air Plana Chloinne na Gàidhealtachd 1: 2001-2004 The comprehensive review of FHC1, the first Children’s Services Plan for Highland, can be found at: www.forhighlandschildren.org (and is also available in print format). The review document provides a comprehensive commentary on the work taking place across Highland to improve and integrate services for children and families. It evidences an impressive range of activity by practitioners and managers in all of our services and agencies,

    THE HIGHLAND COUNCIL Agenda Item 5.2 SOUTH PLANNING APPLICATIONS COMMITTEE Report No PLS/011/14 25 February 2014 13/04363/FUL: Mr John Mann Corran Ferry Hotel, Onich, Fort William, PH33 6SE Report by Area Planning Manager – South SUMMARY Description : Erection of restaurant and bar Recommendation - GRANT Ward : 22 - Fort William and Ardnamurchan Development category : Local Development Pre-determination hearing : None required Reason referred to Committee : Timeous objections from members of the public residing at 5 or more separate addresses. 1. PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT 1.1 Planning permission is sought for a replacement for the Corran Inn, which was demolished in late 2013. The proposed development would comprise a bar and restaurant, with the restaurant on ground and first floors, and a self contained one bedroom manager's flat, accessed via an external stair, on the first floor. The proposed footprint would largely coincide with the former building. 1.2 Informal pre-application enquiry 12/04272/PREAPP was submitted: change of use from hotel/B&B accommodation to 4/5 self catering units within existing building, with existing bar retained. Generally supportive response subject to occupancy controls to prevent units being sold off separately. 1.3 The site is just off the A82 approximately 9 miles south of Fort William, adjacent to the queue for the ferry crossing from Nether Lochaber to Ardgour, and next to the Corran Bunkhouse. There is a car park in front of the former Inn, accessed off the road to the ferry. No changes are proposed to the existing access and car park. 1.4 No supporting information submitted.
