A community-owned island estate has bought an important local building to save it from potentially being turned into a holiday home.
Pairc Trust in Lewis has completed a deal to bring the Kershader resource centre into community ownership alongside other local facilities.
The trust took over the estate in December 2015 after a 13-year campaign and initially looked into buying the centre the following year.
Priorities then changed and the trust concentrated on developing affordable housing units.
But in 2019 it renewed its interest in the centre – which houses a playgroup, gym and space for other community groups.
