How a cancelled ferry has impacted life on island life
But some islanders say the weeks of disruption has left them questioning the sustainability of island life.John Joe MacNeil is chief executive of Gaelic language development organisation Ceòlas Uibhist. Originally from Barra, he returned to the Western Isles after some time spent living and working on the mainland."It was always my passion to return to the islands, to find work and be involved in the Gaelic community.
She said: "We have nice people around us, with a great culture, plenty produce and renewable energies - all of which we contribute to the rest of the country and the rest of the world. She said a Uist primary school's trip to the mainland, a tradition restarted after the Covid pandemic, had required intervention from MSPs and a Scottish government minister to navigate west coast ferry disruption.The loss of the South Uist service in June also put pressure on other routes to and from the isles.
Donna said: "Luckily they did find one space but the rest of the family had to travel as foot passengers, which made it a bit more difficult because living in Uist isn't the easiest without a vehicle. "It highlighted the issue that the services that haven't been running have had a knock on effect to everyday life and other things happening on the island.""We do have alternatives but that's not to say that there's availability, especially at last minute, like in the case of a family emergency."
