Locals invited to SNH reception in Lochgilphead

Local people from across mid Argyll are being invited along to an informal evening reception by Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH) at their office at 1 Kilmory Industrial Estate, Lochgilphead from 5.30 until 7pm on Thursday 26 May.

Scottish Natural Heritage is the Scottish Government's advisor on the management, enjoyment, understanding and sustainable use of Scotland's wildlife, natural habitats and landscape.

Andrew Thin, SNH chairman, will host the event, along with unit manager David Maclennan.

Andrew Thin said: “The evening will provide an opportunity for informal discussion about the work of SNH in the area, what we do and why; giving people the opportunity to raise issues relating to the natural environment which are of interest to them. This is about making senior people in SNH more accessible to the public and is also a really useful way for us to keep in touch with public perceptions of the organisation. We certainly hope many people will be able to come along and we look forward to meeting them on the night.”

The event is free and light refreshments will be provided. Please contact Caroline Anderson on 01546 603611 for more information and to book a place.
