RBS has reversed a decision to close four bank branches in the north of Scotland.
SNP MP for Ross, Skye and Lochaber Ian Blackford has played a key role in campaigning for the bank to change its mind on its closure plans.
Branches in Beauly, Castlebay on Barra, Kyle and Tongue will now stay open until at least the end of the year.
The use of these branches will be reviewed between now and then.
