ISLANDS OF BARRA AND VATERSAY ARE CLOSED. Donโ€™t travel here, donโ€™t put unnecessary strain on our medical staff and limited resources. We will open again and be delighted to see you. But in the meantime we are looking after our community, the thing that makes us so special.

A man (67) has been charged after a stream near Castlebay on the Isle of Barra was contaminated with human waste from a campervan. We received a report of the vanโ€™s toilet cassette being emptied around 10.30am on Sat 29 April. A report will be sent to the Procurator Fiscal.

Thought for Sunday Currently there are around 175 houses in #Barra and #Vatersay that are empty for more than 7 months a year - not including the 60 which are holiday lets. Can you imagine how much more vibrant the community would be with a fraction of these houses โ€ฆ

Another glorious day on #barra and #vatersay . We are so fortunate here that we are so spaced out and we can get out and enjoy our environment. We can get too close to people but we can shout hello, wave, smile and have a wee conversation. It is especially important to #BeKind .
