Some background about Eilidh MacLeod
Eilidh was a typical 14-year-old growing up in a small tight-knit community on the Isle of Barra in Scotland’s Outer Hebrides. Studying, time with friends and her love of music filled her time.
A major part of Eilidh’s life was her love of music. She was a huge fan of American singer Ariana Grande – the artist she went to see at Manchester Arena in May 2017 where she sadly died along with 21 others in the attack on the venue.
When at home, Eilidh was a keen bagpiper and was developing into a talented musician. She played in the local pipe band, often travelling and competing with them. Making music was something very special for Eilidh.
