In this week’s The Orcadian

This week’s edition of The Orcadian is now available in shops and online.

On the front page, we report that a “terrifying” situation of “risk to life and limb” in some isles looks set to continue, as it has emerged that the Scottish Ambulance Service has “no intention” of paying all first responders to provide emergency services.

Also in the newspaper this week is a two-page feature marking the 30th anniversary of Crossroads Care Orkney, and looking at the lifeline support the charity has offered throughout that time.
