Our vision is to address the challenges of island life, while ensuring we maintain and protect what is special about our island home. The Isle of Kerrera is a rugged wee gem of an island, lying just a few minutes ferry ride off the coast of Oban. The Isle of Kerrera Development Trust (IKDT) grew out of the Isle of Kerrera Residents Association (IKRA). The IKDT was registered as a charity in March 2009 and is also a Company Limited by Guarantee. The aim of the IKDT is to represent local people, and to initiate and develop projects that will benefit the island, both the local community and its visitors.
Beneficiaries: 'Children or young people','People with disabilities or health problems','No specific group, or for the benefit of the community'
