Other facilities include a new video conferencing suite which was the result of the 3 Islands Partnership Project to allow users to connect to Islay, Jura and Colonsay. In conjuction with Argyll and Bute Council we are making these facilities available to local businesses and other partner organisations. Our aim is to build up a network of video conferencing centres throughout the area to overcome some of the communication problems faced by rural communities and businesses.
