Weโ€™re delighted to announce a very special addition to our 100th anniversary celebrations this year, thanks to Donnie MacGillivray, Shiel Buses.

On Friday 19th June, as part of Mรฒd ร€ird Nam Murchan, Donnie will be bringing his beautifully restored vintage MacBraynes bus to Acharacle Primary School. Everyone is invited to step aboard for a chat, some tunes, and of course a Gaelic song!

Weโ€™re incredibly grateful for Donnieโ€™s support of our local Mรฒd. Donnie was recently recognised with the Friends of the Mรฒd award at Am Mรฒd Nร iseanta Rรฌoghail / The Royal National Mรฒd in Fort Williamโ€”a very well deserved honour.

With lots of big concerts coming to Hampden and Murrayfield over the next few months and accommodation prices skyrocketing in the cities, we wanted to gauge interest in coach trips to and from the venues.
If you are attending one or more of the concerts and have a minute, please fill in our (very short, donโ€™t worry!) survey.
We will close the survey on Wednesday 13th May and if there is enough interest we can give you more information.
