Stunning shell sand beaches fringed with machair, vast expanses of moorland, rugged hills, dramatic cliffs and surrounding seas all contain a rich biodiversity of flora, fauna and marine life. Together with a thriving Gaelic culture, this provides an inspiring island environment to live, study and work in, and a culturally rich place to explore as a visitor. The islands are privileged to be home to several award-winning contemporary Art Centres and Festivals, plus a creative trail of many smaller artist/maker run spaces. This publication aims to guide you to the galleries, shops and websites, where Art and Craft made in the Outer Hebrides can be enjoyed. En-route there are numerous sculptures, landmarks, historical and archaeological sites to visit. The guide documents some (but by no means all) of these contemplative places, which interact with the surrounding landscape, interpreting elements of island history and relationships with the natural environment. The Comhairle’s Heritage and Library Services are comprehensively detailed. Museum nan Eilean at Lews Castle in Stornoway, by special loan from the British Museum, is home to several of the Lewis Chessmen, one of the most significant archaeological finds in the UK. Throughout the islands a network of local historical societies, run by dedicated volunteers, hold a treasure trove of information, including photographs, oral histories, genealogies, croft histories and artefacts specific to their locality.

This information is contained in the associated tables and the information uploaded to the SG’s HARP system. 1.4 The SHIP has been produced by the Comhairle in line with the revised guidance issued by the Scottish Government in August 2018 and in partnership with Hebridean Housing Partnership (HHP), the main Registered Social Landlord in the Outer Hebrides. 1.5 In summary, the SHIP identifies the requirement for £41.862m AHSP funding for the provision of 423 new affordable houses. 1.6 The SHIP covers a 5 year period from 2019/20 to 2023/24 and was approved by the Comhairle in September 2018. MORE HOMES SCOTLAND 2.1 In March 2016, Ministers announced More Homes Scotland (MHS), an overarching approach to support the increase in supply of homes across all tenures which will incorporate a variety of existing and new initiatives including: • A commitment of over £3 billion over the next 5 financial years to fund the delivery of 50,000 affordable homes accompanied by 5 year Resource Planning Assumptions, increased subsidy levels, a new Rural Housing Fund and support for City Deals.

  • Contact Officer: John Edward, Post: Service Manager, Community Care BACKGROUND
    JOINT SERVICES COMMITTEE 12 DECEMBER 2008 POLICY AND RESOURCES COMMITTEE 18 DECEMBER 2008 CARE UNITS – OPTIONS FOR FUTURE SERVICE DELIVERY Report by Chief Social Work Officer PURPOSE OF REPORT To set out a range of options for a sustainable Care Unit Service. COMPETENCE 1.1 There are no legal or constraints to the recommendations being implemented. The financial aspects of the report are contained within the body of the Report. SUMMARY 2.1 This report provides a detailed analysis of the future options for the Care Unit Service on the basis of the available budget, demographic factors and the known and projected demand for the service. A Best Value approach was taken, considering the most effective and economic option, which includes disposal of properties which are surplus to requirements and utilising capital receipts to meet one-off repairs and maintenance revenue requirements. 2.2 The report proposes an Area Care Unit Service which offers residents a 24 hour staffed service with a maximum ratio of staff to residents of one to four. The new 24 hour staffed service also meets the requirements of fire safety and, in particular, safe evacuation of buildings. 2.3 The report proposes a detailed Action Plan outlining a phased process to implement an Area Care Unit Service. RECOMMENDATIONS 3.1 It is recommended that (a) Garrabost, Carloway, Crowlista and Iochdar units should be the basis of the future Care Unit Service through the model of Area Care Units, and the remaining five care units be closed by 31 March 2009 namely, Back, South Dell,
