“I have learned that I can be positive about things and not so negative.  I know I find it hard to concentrate and so I will stick at things and focus.”

Nestled against Staffin Bay at the foot of the Quiraing, Staffin’s gentle and hard-working island spirit is absorbed in each turn in the road taken, each family croft passed, each fishing boat spotted.

Staffin is a fascinating community of significant interest to the anthropologist, archaeologist, biologist, historian, theologian, geologist, hill-walker, world traveller or soul-searcher alike.

Staffin and its surrounding crofting townships at the north end of the Isle of Skye constitute a community in which actions speak louder than words. It is a place that exemplifies the six core principles of The Columban Code and catalyses the impact of our leadership experiences.

An early morning here restores the soul.
