All are welcome, travel is free for all members of the Struan community. Friends of community members are welcome to come, for a small charge, if numbers allow for this.
The bus has space for 33 people, with storage for shopping underneath. We would need at least 20 people signed-up to make the transport viable. Otherwise, we will use the North West Skye minibus, which can carry up to 8 people and their shopping bags, in which case we would need a volunteer driver with D1 on their licence?
Deadline for response – 1st December 2024 please also advise whether you have a D1 license and are willing to drive.

The calendar is primarily there for “what’s on at the school” but if you are holding other community relevant events and want them published in the calendar then drop the site admin a note with the details at:
website_admin@struancommunity.co.uk
There is an information leaflet about the digital switchover available in the “useful links” page on the web site or can be viewed by following the link below:
Thank you to all those that responded to the questionnaire and the results are below. On the basis of the responses we plan to have Saturday Morning Coffee every fortnight from October to March starting on 5th October. We will be in contact with those who offered to assist with supervising so we can put a schedule together.
There will be a skip at the re-cycling point from Friday 6th August for use by Struan residents. Please do not leave anything outside the skip and do not fill it above the level of the sides as it will not be taken away. Also please note that there are many items that are not allowed in the skip (see note below). If any of these are found in the skip the community will be charged a substantial fee based on the weight of the whole skip. If this happens there will be no further Community Skips (which would be a shame).
The next craft night will be on Thursday 5th September, 7 – 9pm at Struan School, all are welcome.
If you want to fill in the questionnaire sent out yesterday, you will need to do so via the web site and not by filling out the form on the email you received. Alternatively you can go straight to the questionnaire by following the link below:
