we actually did it and the office is staying open because they finally listened to us. my hands are shaking a bit typing this but i am just so incredibly grateful that 107 of us kept the pressure on until they backed down. now we just have to make sure …
I urge the Scottish Government to stop SEPA running down their Dingwall office and centralising jobs in Aberdeen and the central belt and calls on them to actively decentralise jobs to areas of the Highlands and Islands.
I honestly cant believe how this thing has exploded lately and it just goes to show that people really do care about keeping these jobs right here in Dingwall instead of losing them to the big cities. It is wild to think about how all of you just showed up like this and I am still trying to catch my breath because the momentum is actually starting to feel real.

Ridiculous to move these jobs away. We need to keep work in the Highlands instead of shipping everything down to the central belt.

The government is always talking about supporting rural areas but then they just close offices anyway. Total joke.

Absolute rubbish to centralize. Think about the local economy for once!
