The New Waternish Hall Update
As part of the SSE Skye Reinforcement Project, SSE has allocated approximately £5.4 million to a Skye Reinforcement Local Fund, in order to provide dedicated community benefit funding to successful applicants living along the route, including all community council areas within Skye & Raasay.
Any potential application will need to demonstrate support from the community. 114 people responded to our own recent survey to gauge interest in a project to establish a new, improved community hall. We are asking that those of you who are in support of such a project, whether you did or didn’t complete our survey, take the time to complete the SSEN survey as the next step towards a future application for a grant from the fund.
To complete the survey, click the following link:
Online Consultation Survey - Skye Reinforcement Local Fund.
We feel this is an opportunity not to be missed.
To find out more, visit the SSEN Transmission Community Benefit website or contact community.benefit@sse.com. The consultation is open until 11th April.
