Lynx: communities in Highland and Moray invited to discuss reintroduction.

A wide-ranging community discussion on the potential reintroduction of lynx to northern Scotland is being launched this month by the Lynx to Scotland partnership.

New year, growing community 🌱

We’re excited to help more 18–28 year olds find their place in nature with the free Discover Nature Award.

Abisola & Caitlin share how the pilot gave them knowledge, connection & community to take action on the climate crisis.

Something new is taking root in Scotland 🌱

Over the past six months, the Discover Nature Award (DNA) has been taking shape. Co-designed by young adults, it is a two-day journey for 18 to 28 year olds to reconnect with the Scottish landscape and find their place in tackling the climate crisis 🌍💪

From exploring species reintroductions to championing youth-led rewilding, these newly-funded projects are showing us what bold action for nature truly looks like.

Time to take a swing at something new.
After 6 years, my time at Ramblers has wrapped.
Massive thanks to the inspiring young adults who helped me build something special with the Out There Award.
You made it a joy and totally unforgettable.

So cool to see an American walker’s perspective on Scottish access rights.👉 www.backpacker.com/stories/issu...

“The right to roam seems like a leap forward in how we think of others—not as strangers to be mistrusted, but as equals with whom natural resources, scenery & collective fates are shared.”
