Not Just Another AGM - 2 days of celebrations

           Join us  for 2 days of celebrations for the end of the wind turbine installation; plus a CALL FOR ACTION to all Members of NUDC-T.
          
           September marks the end of installation of both Turbine 1 and Turbine 2 at the UistWind site.  It has been a difficult time both during development, and during construction, but finally the wind farm is generating renewable electricity for the long-term benefits of the local community.

           September also marks the 1st Annual Member's Meeting for NUDC-T; therefore, NUDC-T are sending out a CALL FOR ACTION to all Members to come and have their say at the meeting; whilst welcoming nominations for election onto the Management Committee.
