Fred Shortland lives in Lochranza, one of the most beautiful parts of the island of Arran. Having visited the Holy Isle just off Arran, Fred and his wife then looked at Arran as a potential place to retire. Although “retired” Fred is still very busy with his business which he runs from the Arran as well as continuing to work for and with the popular and world famous song smith Suzanne Vega. In this interview, Fred discusses not only moving and living on Arran, but his work in the field of human rights as well as his involvement with the “Justice For Kirsty Campaign”. Full of light and shade, this podcast will have you riveted from the start as Fred tells his at times incredible, but moving story of his life and work.
