Listen to the This Is Islay podcast

Islay News

Some new media from Islay to write about. Back in August the This is Islay podcast was launched. Its goal is to bring you voices from Islay, news and events with interviews from the community. It is intended for both locals and listeners further afield to give an insight into what is happening on Islay and how the community experienced events. The intention is to complement other news sources (e.g. The Ileach), not to compete with them.

As of writing this two episodes have been published, Welcome to This Is Islay Fàilte a chàirdean and Islay Resilience and A Trip To India. The below embedded player should list and allow you to play the most recent episodes (as of writing this the two mentioned ones):

Mental Health Support on Islay This Is Islay

This episode features Glen in conversation with Lynn Johnstone, part of Mid-Argyll Youth Development Services (MAYDS), focussing on the mental health support she provides at Islay High School. More information is available at https://www.exchange-counselling.com/ .
  1. Mental Health Support on Islay
  2. The Ileach is 50 Years Old
  3. Art on Display: Interactions
  4. The Return of Fèis Ìle – The Islay Festival – 2023
  5. 2022 in Review

I hope you’ll enjoy the podcasts as much as I did and will subscribe to them (I’m using Google Podcasts, which works really well for me, but various other services including Spotify are available). With the latest developments around Covid-19 I found the information about the Islay Resilience Group very interesting and how it will help with possible future developments. But of course there are plenty of other interesting topics as well.
