The West Coast Delicatessen in Ullapool is to close permanently following the death of its owner.
Shân Tunsley, the driving force behind the venture, fulfilled a lifelong dream of owning a Deli when she opened in 2013. Since then, the venue has been popular with locals and tourists alike.
The establishment has been closed since Shân’s death in January, and the family have announced this week that it will not reopen.
To clear the remaining stock, a final sale will be held this Saturday, February 28.
Officers from Police Scotland are the latest group to learn Gaelic online through UHI’s fully funded Gaelic courses, supported by Bòrd na Gàidhlig.
The programme gives participants the opportunity to build stronger connections with the communities they serve while increasing the use of Gaelic in public services.
It also encourages them to use the language in their everyday interactions at work and within their communities.
Officers based in Inverness, Barra and Stornoway, along with staff from UHI, Highland Council and NHS Western Isles, are currently taking part, and further opportunities for public sector staff and community members will be launched soon.
