Wildlife trust buys £17.5m Inverbroom Estate.

Scottish Wildlife Trust (SWT) plans to regenerate native woodland, restore peatland and carry out nature-friendly farming on the estate.

Mamta Patel, of Lochbroom and Ullapool Community Trust, said the wider community would be watching developments on the estate with interest.

She said: "There will be questions and wonderings around what will it mean for things like the wider community needs - affordable housing, jobs and training and community transport.

"This is a thriving community with lots of entrepreneurial people who are trying to do things that are good for the community and the environment.

"So, I think it should sit well with that."
