Michael Milne: works for NHS. ‘I care for my elderly mother.
We live in the lighthouse – come in and see us any time.’
Val Corey: retired children’s librarian from Liverpool. ‘My
husband and I both had Scottish grandparents and thought
of ourselves as frightfully Scottish. That was until we came
here to live.’
Norma Duncan: primary school teacher. ‘I was brought up on Raasay but don’t live here now. I like to come over when I can
– my family have owned the same house here for generations.’
Callum Gillies: has lived on Raasay for 83 years. ‘It’s quiet
enough but there’s always something to be done and pastimes
to do.’
Tekela Cooke: healthcare worker with children who have
learning disabilities. ‘I’m originally from The Netherlands
and moved here to start a family. I used to be a potter but
it’s hard to make a living out of it.’
