CLAN DONALD LANDS TRUST COMMUNITY NEEDS SURVEY
The Clan Donald Lands Trust is excited to announce our community needs survey. Following a successful Clan fundraising campaign over the past year, in August 2023 CDLT instructed Indigo Project Solutions to carry out formal consultation with our local communities as part of a project to explore options for sustainable development on the Armadale Estate. Available in both English and Gaelic, this first survey is an important opportunity for Sleat residents to influence decision making in their local area. Further engagement opportunities will follow as the project develops.
Sir Ian Macdonald of Sleat Bt, Chair of CDLT Trustees, said, “Our local charity is both people-based and place-based. The trustees and I are proud of our recent progress to ensure our part of Skye has a viable, sustainable future for generations to come. This community survey is a vital part of shaping that collective future, and I encourage all Sleat residents and especially young people to respond.”
Alex Stoddart, CDLT’s CEO, said, “Having committed to foster community wellbeing from the beginning of my tenure as CEO, after many months of planning I am delighted to see the launch of the first of our formal community surveys. Indigo Project Solutions are highly experienced in working with community groups, and we are excited to hear the views of local people.”
