Tayvallich Initiative Ltd

About

Our aim is to protect and enhance what makes Tayvallich and the surrounding area unique: its rich natural heritage, the community’s resilience, and the strong connection between its people and the land and sea. Reversing depopulation and maintaining and developing employment in the area are key concerns, while also maintaining the area’s natural richness and responding and adapting to the climate and biodiversity emergencies. We are developing plans for housing for affordable rent or for sale with a rural housing burden attached to attract young people to stay and work locally. We are developing opportunities for access and inclusion on community-owned land, including the establishment of a community garden and growing scheme. The broader areas of community-owned land are being evaluated for sensitive management and nature restoration. As part of this we are exploring opportunities around renewable energy.
