• How to support local compost initiatives
• Information about what type of composters can be used in different situations.

“It was inspiring to see the amount and range of work that had been achieved in setting up the composting scheme in Mull. I really hope we can apply some of this to our community in Knoydart. I’m really grateful to Lesley for organising this learning exchange. The exchange was really successful.”
