Assessors

The Crofters Commission has a network of Area Assessors, across the crofting counties, who maintain a vital link between the Commission and local communities. Assessors help us disseminate information to local crofters. 

The annual Assessors' conference took place on 16th and 17th November 2011, at the Mercure Hotel, Inverness. For a copy of the speakers' presentations, please click here.

A full report on the conference can be found here.
