I have always been curious about what ‘community development’ looked like in remote rural areas. I have met Alison on a number of times at different events over the years and found out more about Applecross each time.
Alison’s experience of raising a family in Applecross , finding work in Raasay and latterly coming back to Dumfries and Galloway was an interesting tale in the telling. On the way, we chat about how rural groups fix things, what the challenges are and the future of high streets; notably Midsteeple Quarter.
