Easdale makes up four slate islands, that collectively, were once home to 3,000 people who worked in the slate mines during the 19th century.
The islanders of Easdale are once again beginning to thrive but are fearful of the community’s long-term sustainability.
It’s hoped the video, produced by locals, will entice a new wave settlers.
