Falkland In Focus | Week 761

In this week’s programme, the second loligo fishing season comes to an early end. MLA John Birmingham attends the Blue Hole fringe meeting at the Liberal Democrat conference in the UK, and ongoing sewer smells in the Sapper Hill area are addressed by the Public Works Department.

We also take a look at discussions on youth mental health in the Legislative Assembly, with a reminder about the Minding My Mind campaign. Hill Cove Mountains is officially designated as the Falklands’ first National Park, and Executive Council approves plans for a new Supported Living Service based at Yates Place. Plus, the Public Works Department assures the community that funding for the Fox Bay airstrip project remains secure.

After the break, we join the Macmillan Coffee Morning at the Historic Dockyard Museum, explore the theme of sustainable tourism for World Tourism Day, visit some of the Falklands’ top tourist sites, and mark the changing seasons with a Spring Equinox explainer.
