Angela Maclean reports on the effect of the pandemic on refugees and asylum seekers in Glasgow.

Tha Angela Nic’Illeathain ag aithris mu bhuaidh a’ phandemic air luchd-siridh comraich agus fògarraich an Glaschu. Aig àm a’ chiad ghlasaidh chaidh mòran dhiubh a ghluasad gu taighean-òsta sa bhaile, airson an cumail sàbhailte ach dh’èirich draghan mun bhuaidh aige seo air slàinte-inntinn. Bliadhna bhon uairsin tha mòran fhathast anns na taighean-òsta agus tha draghan air nochdadh mu shuidheachadh cuid de bhoireannaich ann an ionad ùr màthair is pàisde sa bhaile. Tha cumhachd ath-nuadhachail air sìor fhàs ann an Alba anns na bliadhnaichean mu dheireadh. Ach ciamar às urrainn dhan Ghàidhealtachd agus na h-Eileanan brath a ghabhail air na goireasan nàdarra a th’ aca ann am pailteas gus a bhith nam pàirt dhan ghnìomhachas? Tha ·¡Ã²°ù±è²¹ a’ tadhal air Arcaibh, a th’ air thoiseach air chàch; Gàrradh Bàgh Eige far a bheilear ag obrachadh eadar roinnean; agus Leòdhas, far a bheil pròiseactan coimhearsnachd air a bhith gu math èifeachdach. Angela Maclean reports on the effect of the pandemic on refugees and asylum seekers in Glasgow. During the first lockdown many were moved into hotel accommodation for their safety and welfare but concerns emerged about the effect of this on their mental health. A year on many remain in hotels and further concerns have been raised about conditions in a new mother and baby unit in the city. The renewable energy industry has grown in Scotland over the years. But how can the Highlands and Islands harness the natural resources at their disposal to ensure they are part of the burgeoning industry? ·¡Ã²°ù±è²¹ visits Orkney, a world-leader in tidal power; Nigg Yard, which is working between sectors; and Lewis, where community projects have proven to be effective.

Tha Covid-19 agus na bacaidhean a tha a' tighinn na chois a' fagail g' eil suidheachadh fògarraich agus luchd-siridh comraich nas dorra buileach. Aig toiseach a' ghlasadh sluaigh an-uiridh chaidh luchd-siridh comraich a ghluasad gu taighean-òsta ann an Glaschu. Tha Mears, a' chompanaidh ris a bheil taigheadas luchd-siridh comraich sa bhaile an urra, ag ràdh do thachair seo airson luchd-siridh comraich, luchd-obrach na companaidh agus luchd-obrach slàinte a chumail sàbhailte bho Chovid-19. Ach chaidh dragh a thogail mun bhuaidh a bh' aige seo air slàinte innitinn. Bliadhna bhon uair sin tha mòran luchd-siridh comraich fhathast sna taighean-òsta agus tha draghan eile air nochdadh mu shuidheachadh cuid de bhoireannaich ann an ionad ùr màthair is pàiste sa bhaile. Tha Angela Nic'illeathain ag aithris.

How the Covid-19 pandemic has affected asylum seekers
The Covid-19 pandemic and lockdown restrictions has left refugees and asylum seekers in a worse situation than before. At the beginning of the lockdown last year asylum seekers were moved into hotels in Glasgow. The housing provider Mears say this was to protect the asylum seekers, Mears staff and health workers from Covid-19. But concerns have been raised about the effect this has had on the mental health of those in the hotels. A year on many are still in hotels and concerns have been raised about a new facility for mothers and babies in the city. Angela Maclean reports.
