One group is led by Alison Dix, and they are keen to meet and talk with local residents who are fluent speakers. Below you can hear edited highlights of a conversation held with Lorna MacKillop. The learners prepared thoroughly for the meeting by drawing up a list of questions to ask Lorna. The list of questions is here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.northpost.co.uk\/uhi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/ceistean-airson-lorna1.pdf\">Ceistean airson Lorna<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>With Lorna\u2019s agreement they then recorded their conversation.
