In inaugurating such a Magazine, its promoters were neither ignorant of the past history of similar undertakings in Scotland and elsewhere, nor were they unacquainted with the difficulties to be met with, and the obstacles to be surmounted in order to make it fulfil its mission in however slight a degree. Believing that there was special need for such a Magazine as An Deo-Ghreine, the purpose of which is to be primarily a propa- gandist organ on behalf of the language, literature, arts and industries of the Gael, they felt confident that Highlanders everywhere would see to the financial success of the venture, and that those of them possessed of expert knowledge of the language, the literature, and the music of the Gael, would ensure the success of its mission by their literary contributions It is gratifying to have to report that this belief has not been misplaced in either instance. Not only within the circle of the Comunn, but outside of it, the Magazine has found sympathy and help. To Miss W. Christie, Edinburgh, the Managers are indebted for the designing of the title and its representation of An Deo-Ghreine. To friends far and near their thanks are gratefully tendered, and anticipating a continuation of the support hitherto so generously given, they look forward to the com- pletion of many Volumes. — an ©eo-^n^èjNe Leabhar I.

  • Kishorn Notes
    From an carrannach The General Interest Magazine of Lochcarron, Shieldaig, Applecross, Kishorn, Torridon & Kinlochewe Districts NO: 360 December/January 2018 £1.00 HIGHLAND HOSPICE ARCHIVE PROJECT At the 25th anniversary awards, Cecilia Bottomley, a co-founder of the Highland Hospice, was inspired by the board of photographs depicting the achievements of the volunteers over the years. This gave her the idea of creating a Hospice Archive. Cecilia assembled a group of volunteers including former members of staff, and a retired Archivist to begin work to establish an Archive documenting the history and all the work done by both staff and volunteers The material collected was then used to create a 'Recognition Wall' celebrating all aspects of the Highland Hospice and the people who made this all possible. The completed Archive has been deposited with the Highland Archive Service for public consultation and to benefit future researchers, while the Recognition Wall is displayed within the Highland Hospice. On the 26th October Edie Watson and Jan Teago, who have been involved for 30 and 25 years respectively, attended a reception at the Highland Hospice to unveil the Archive boards. It was lucky that there was a large amount of material to pass on to the project kept by previous committee members including Aline Forrester and Edie. Jan was in the process of collating this material on the computer and putting it onto a memory stick so the timing was perfect. It is lovely to know that Lochcarron has contributed to the archive. The reception was well-attended and Edie and Jan were delighted to meet other volunteers, some new and others they had known for many years.

    AN CARRANNACH The General Interest Magazine of Lochcarron, Shieldaig, Applecross, Kishorn and Torridon & Kinlochewe Districts NO: 356 AUGUST 2017 £1.00 Lochcarron Quilters get stitching in support of local people living with dementia A group of local quilters from Lochcarron got creative and produced a series of small lap quilts in support of local people living with dementia. They aimed for one quilt and ended up with five. One of the quilters had been inspired after spotting hand knitted ‘Twiddlemitts’, for people with dementia. Shortly after that they met with Christine McCallum, Dementia Link Worker with Alzheimer Scotland. They were able to discuss their ideas with Christine who mentioned the lap quilts which suited the quilters even better! With the challenge set, they went about researching the type of decorations and additions that would add interest to the lap quilts. Twiddlemitts and lap quilts provide something to hold which can help to reduce anxiety and promote calm in people in the more advanced stages of dementia. A range of items, such as ribbons, buttons, beads, toggles, rope and zips can be sown on which can provide activity, stimulation and distraction. Having something to hold, ‘twiddle’ or fidget with can have a calming effect on some people who are in the later stages of dementia. The textures, gadgets and warm cosiness are all there to provide stimulation and comfort that can add to an individual’s quality of life. These items are hand crafted so depend on local groups like The Lochcarron Quilters to take the initiative. One quilter said: ‘We initially thought we would make one small quilt between us to see how it would turn out, but, at our next meeting, we were brimming with ideas and so we decided that a small quilt each would be ideal and we ended up with five’ Christine McCallum from Alzheimer Scotland said “I’m delighted to have made contact with this very talented group and be presented with the wonderful Lap Quilts they have created.
