Very grateful thanks to council workers

Sir – I would like to thank our council staff for the recent effort during the bad weather. Many of the workers will not have experienced such severe weather conditions but they worked hard to keep the roads and schools open.

The Helmsdale to Kinbrace road was passable all through the worst period when the other roads were blocked, giving the village a lifeline for supplies.
Special thanks to the Tongue refuse workers who pushed bins and carried rubbish along roads which the lorry could not access. We much appreciate the effort which went above and beyond their duty.
The conditions proved that community spirit is still alive, something we are all grateful for.
Evelyn MacKenzie, Griam Mhor, Kinbrace
