Multi-agency business recovery group
The Highland Council, through Business Gateway Highland, is working with Highlands and Islands Enterprise, The Scottish Government, the Cairngorms National Park Authority and the Cairngorms Business Partnership as part of a multi-agency business recovery group. The group has been established to understand the economic impact of the wildfire and plan how best to support affected businesses in the short and longer term.
Survey
To support these efforts, the Cairngorms Business Partnership has issued a survey to businesses within the exclusion zone and is helping to coordinate the gathering of detailed feedback from those affected by closures. The survey will help partners understand:
- the scale of the impact on business
- what support might be needed in the short and longer-term
- longer-term recovery and business resilience considerations
