@armadalefarm Another benefit of utilising local. You'll be back in the hall (social distancing permitting!) before you know it.

[SSE Renewables Highlands @SSER_Highlands]

Fantastic Joyce! Delighted that you're back to it. #communitybenefit #strathynorth

[Joyce Campbell @armadalefarm]

As Scotland’s lockdown eases into phase two, and construction sites start to return to work, our new village hall build is underway again. Local firm Norbloc Construction Ltd’s team have made great progress in just two days. Exciting times. We owe so much to all our funders.

Our new report shows that the operation of four renewable energy projects in the #GreatGlen are worth £14M of value to the Highlands alone. #renewables

@DavidsonMagnus Cheers Magnus, always good to hear feedback from you!

It even fits round lambing @armadalefarm !

[SSE Renewables Highlands @SSER_Highlands]

Instead of our usual community consultation for #StrathySouth, the info is online so you can see it from the comfort of your own home. It isn’t quite the same as seeing the community face to face, but for now we need to keep things safe. https://t.co/qS6enfqEiZ

And looking over to the ever splendorous Strathy North reminding us that this part of the world is important in our net-zero ambitions in more than just peat.

Loving the support of the local supply chain in this hard time Joyce - hope the weather holds out for you! #strathynorth #communitybenefit #renewables
