The group, Yes Lochaber, told the Lochaber Times: 'Yes Lochaber was delighted to hear the First Minister Nicola Sturgeon's announcement on the plans to hold a second Independence Referendum on October 19, 2023. This was what we anticipated when we relaunched Yes Lochaber in November 2021.
'Yes Lochaber is a non-partisan, local group with a diverse membership which campaigns actively for Scottish Independence.
'We have already undertaken a range of events locally, including public meetings, leafleting, street stalls and film nights.
'In the coming year our aim is to build on this success and campaign in a positive, inclusive way, reaching out to all voters.'
And the group added: 'We passionately believe the people of Scotland should be in control of their own destiny. This can only be achieved through independence.
'Together we can then elect the government we want, influence and shape policy and build a fairer, greener and more prosperous nation.'
