My second lambing is under way! A bit of a change of scene from being in a shed all day as now I am outdoor lambing which is all new and exciting, learning a lot of tips to use on my own sheep 🐑💪

Lochview Rural Training Centre is a charity and social enterprise based on a croft near Lairg.

The training centre offers a wide range of activities and training in land based, environmental and heritage skills, to children, young people and adults of all ages and abilities.

People come to Lochview Rural Training Centre to learn how to care for the animals, the environment and the land on which they live or work; to develop new skills to help them in their careers; to make goods from products grown on the croft; or just to make new friends. Some people go on to further learning, to new jobs or careers, or even set up their own businesses.

Lochview Rural Training Centre runs a wide range of activities and training sessions throughout the year either at the croft, in schools or out in the community. We are busy planning activities, training and projects for 2025 /26 and we would love to hear what type of training, support or activities you would like to be part of in the coming year.

We have put together a short survey that should take no more that 5 minutes to complete that can be done on either your phone or computer. As a thank you for completing the survey and helping us to plan the types of training and activities we should offer, each completed survey will be put in to a random prize draw to win a £25 Amazon Voucher. A separate survey can be completed for each child, young person or adult in your household.
