Cùm sùil a-mach an seo. Tha an Comann air a bhith fortanach maoineachadh fad sia mìosan fhaighinn bho Oighreachd a’ Chrùin airson Oifigear Meadhanan Sòisealta. Tha sinn toilichte gum bi Anna NicIlleDhuibh, a bha againn roimhe na Preantas Dualchais, a' tòiseachadh obair pàirt ùine Diluain sa tighinn. Tha Anna air a bhith ag obair gu saor-thoileach mar tha airson na tri mìosan a chaidh seachad, còmhla ri Fiona NicÌosaig agus Aurora Moxon.
Bi dùil gum faicear gnothaichean dualchais inntinneach an seo a dh’aithghearr.
Tha sinn airson brath a chumail ri na buill againn agus luchd tadhail an làrach-lìn.
