Tarbert & Skipness Community Trust has been working to encourage local members to take forward the plans outlined in the SHIP for 30 new houses by 2026. We are aware this is a complicated project but are very keen that the preparation process is started soon. The Trust is looking forward to a meeting with Douglas Whyte and Councillor Robin Currie which was unavoidably delayed in March. Tarbert Life, Tarbert Heritage project will be opening for the 2023 season soon. Our project on shops will be a new display and we are working on making our existing information boards more user friendly. We have been donated the skeleton of a Cuvier beaked whale which we will be displaying. We had thought it as a game for children to work on as a jigsaw until we looked up the price of whale bones on ebay! They would not have lasted long! We have applied for, and have been granted an educational license in order to be in possession on the bones. The Trust will be carrying out the annual beach clean on the weekend on 28-29th April. We anticipate being able to get up to 50 adults and young people out over the weekend. Thanks to Tarbert Harbour Authority for collecting bags from the beaches and GRAB trust for the pickers.
