❄️ Recent icy conditions across the Forth catchment mean our rivers are at their coldest, with fish conserving energy through winter. Cold, clean, oxygen-rich water helps wildlife thrive year-round. Magnus captured this shot from the River Teith yesterday. How’s your local river looking? Share below!

Huge thanks to everyone who made it possible, and best wishes for 2026 from FRT! 🌊🌳🐟

Today was the Trust's annual Health & Safety refresher training and the office was busy with discussion! Topics covered included the importance of water safety, lone working practices, dynamic risk assessments, COSHH & more - but staff were kept well fuelled with coffee and snacks.☕

Huge thanks to the Biodiversity Challenge Fund & ScotGov's Nature Restoration Fund (managed by NatureScot) for supporting work on the Allan Water. And a big thanks to the volunteers from SEPA, Network Rail and the local community: ongoing monitoring is vital, and your help keeps these trees healthy!

Photos from a tree-maintenance session at Deaf Knowe last week! Despite a chilly start, we checked around 1,000 trees ❄ Great effort! We also found plastic balls in-river 😔 luckily a volunteer is cleaning them, hoping to donate to a charity that may send them to Ukraine.
