It was announced in mid-2007 that the Youth Hostel in Kyleakin was earmarked for closure as part of the Scottish Youth Hostel Association’s review of its current properties.
Following two Public Meetings of the residents of Kyleakin Village, a Steering Group was set up to form a Community Company with an initial remit to purchase or lease the Youth Hostel, to safeguard a vital community asset for the future. Ten members of the community were tasked to form the Steering Group.
