Scourie has around 200 people with 126 households and 20 social housing properties. There is a waiting list of twenty-one for affordable housing. With the number of holiday homes increasing, home ownership is becoming increasingly impossible for most young people. With funding approved from the Scottish Land Fund to purchase H1 and from a variety of other sources, we were able to apply for and successfully secured planning approval on May 9^th 2025, for the relocation of Scourie School Car Park to allow freedom of access to H1 and for the construction of 9 affordable homes. Various funding applications in support of the car park construction have been lodged, with a decision expected in early September

Phase Two, the building of homes, is heavily dependent on securing the Circa £3million required. Applications will be made during 2025/26
