00:00 I'm from Teviallach on the west coast of Scotland.
00:03 I grew up in this community and it's an incredible place.
00:07 It has incredible nature and wildlife all around it.
00:12 I really hope that the people here,
00:15 especially young people, get the opportunity
00:17 to live and work on the land,
00:20 to reconnect to the nature that we have.
00:22 If Highland Rewilding can work with us to make that happen,
00:26 then that would be great.
00:28 There's this idea that if you were brought up here,
00:32 when you're old enough, you have to sort of leave
00:34 and go far away to find work.
00:36 It'd be nice if that changed,
00:38 if there was sort of more community
00:41 for young people around here.
00:43 So if there was housing that was affordable
00:46 and jobs to come with that, that'd be great.
00:49 And if Highland Rewilding is involved
00:52 and if they could maybe help with that sort of thing,
00:54 then that'd be brilliant.
