- An initial funding application has been submitted to the European Maritime Fisheries Fund for the Harbours Upgrade Project (Milton and Scarinish). The amount equates to half of the overall project cost and other funders are also being approached.
- Continuing with the funding updates, we hope to submit a Scottish Land Fund application by the end of the month for costs relating to the Hynish Project. Talks are continuing with The Hebridean Trust and we will have further information to present to the community at the November Open Day.
- We are pleased to report that we have recruited two additional directors onto the TCDT Board. Janette Reid and David Naylor attended their first Board Meeting this month.
