Main content
Mark Stephen meets Anne Cholawo, who gave up her career in a London advertising agency to live on the remote Scottish island of Soay, which has a population of three.
Anne Cholawo gave up her career in a London advertising agency in the late 80s to move to a remote Scottish island at the age of 27. Something about the island of Soay, off Skye chimed with Anne and she has made it her home. The island has no roads, no pier, no mains electricity and no shops. Now there's only three people left on the island - Anne, her husband, Robert and a neighbour. Mark Stephen hears how the island of Soay captured Anne but also the difficulties of life on an island where self sufficiency is key and only 3 people remain.
