A PROPOSAL from Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH) for a South Uist community group to establish a new nature reserve within an active crofting estate has been approved by the Scottish Government.
With 1,100 hectares of land at Loch Druidibeg, South Uist, brought back into community ownership, local group Stòras Uibhist, in partnership with RSPB Scotland, plans for the site to include visitor facilities; habitat, goose and deer management; enhanced drainage and water quality; and improved access to the loch.
