Outward Bound Trust’s outdoor education centre on the shores of Loch Eil received a ministerial visit earlier this month. Highlands and Islands MSP Emma Roddick popped by on Friday December 1 to learn more about the Trust’s Women’s Leadership course. The course is focused on helping women hone the skills necessary to be successful outdoor leaders. “There’s a lot that Outward Bound is doing that can be applied more broadly when the Scottish Government is looking at tackling sexism and inequalities. “I am very grateful to Alice Varley as course leader, David Exeter as the head of the centre, and of course to all the women of the Outdoor Leadership Course for spending the afternoon chatting to me and sharing their love of outdoor education.”
