Come and see us at the Spring Fair hosted by the Loch of Ayre Walkway Association on 11th April!

 On Saturday 11 April 2026, we will be at the Spring Fair, hosted by the Loch of Ayre Walkway Association, in the Holm Community Hall. We will have a Bottle Stall and home bakes. Look forward to seeing you there!





Funding received!

 

We have been awarded nearly £10k from the Scottish Government’s Community and Renewable Energy Scheme (CARES) and another £1,000 from the Highlands and Islands Climate Action Fund to help develop the vestry at St Nicholas into a comfortable changing area for visiting artists. Along with some of our own funds, we have already installed a solar PV system and battery. This is the exciting first stage of a planned major development over the next two years, which we could not have achieved without the funding we have received.

 


We are Local Energy Scotland
