About Us

Saxa Vord Ltd was established to reverse the inevitable damage to the local community and economy that occurs when redundant military bases are closed and personnel and jobs disappear.

Saxa Vord is being developed in partnership with Shetland Islands Council and Shetland Enterprise and with the support of the people of Unst.
