A committee of the Trust meets less frequently to manage the loch water quality and the shared use of the loch by a range of watersports clubs. Friends of the Trust are contacted regularly with Newsletters which contain news of past events, and advertise ways of participating in Trust activities such as walking (weekly) or annually (two week festival) using the local network of paths and some more distant paths to attract a wider audience. Newsletters may also invite volunteers for manual work related to our projects and update those Friends on progress with the projects.
