MEMBERS of Western Isles Council’s Policy and Resources Committee will be asked to note a report on preparations for the 100th anniversary of the loss of the Iolaire.
The Scottish Commemorations Panel has indicated the remembrance of the HMY Iolaire disaster will be the culmination of the official programme of commemorative events. It is proposed the comhairle will host a civic event in remembrance of the Iolaire disaster. The event would be on December 31, 2018, into January 1, 2019. Part of the preparations for the event will be the re-instatement of the path leading down to the Iolaire monument.
Further to the works generated by the reinstatement of the path, there is a proposal to erect a sculpture including interpretation panels, reflecting the loss of the HMY Iolaire and the impact on the communities of Lewis and Harris. An Lanntair is taking forward the proposal and is currently in discussion with the artist concerning the final brief and approaching funding agencies to put together finance.
