NatureScot support for the Trust

Scotland’s Nature Agency helps fund the Trust's John Muir Award and engagement work.

The Trust is delighted to announce continued funding support from NatureScot for the John Muir Award and Engagement 2021-22. 

Funding will help the Trust contribute towards NatureScot’s compatible priority areas of: access to and enjoyment of nature; the role of nature in transforming places where people live; skills for a nature-rich future, especially in youth employment; action to reverse biodiversity loss; and Nature-based Solutions to climate change and other problems.

Toby Clark, John Muir Award Scotland Manager, said: “We’re very pleased to receive this support from NatureScot. By strengthening understanding, connection to, and care of wild places we contribute towards a nature-rich future for Scotland - vital in enhancing ‘green recovery’ from Covid-19 and stimulating resilience in response to the climate emergency.”
