Well done Kevin!

For decades, the Ullapool Harbour has been the pulse of the village—a gateway to the Hebrides, a haven for local livelihoods. But recently, thanks to the vision and leadership of harbourmaster Kevin Peach, it's become something even more remarkable: a symbol of inclusive community transformation. Recognised with an MBE for his dedication, Kevin has overseen not just infrastructure upgrades but human-centred innovations—from creating safe spaces for people with dementia to launching programs that reconnect vulnerable residents with the sea. His story isn't just about boats and berths; it's about anchoring belonging, dignity, and pride in a small Highland town.
