Walking-the-Talk

If you want to know what we mean by "walking-the-talk", here's a flavour of the range of projects we have undertaken.

Visitor impacts on the Loch Lomond islands

Loch Lomond is world famous for its bonnie, bonnie banks, but it is becoming increasingly infamous for the impacts of recreation on the ecology of its protected species and habitats.

Mountain woodlands - best practice handbook

We were contracted by the Action for Mountain Woodlands group to write the text for a new best-practice handbook on managing mountain woodlands.

Windyhills community woodlands management plan

We were contracted by the Woodhead and Windyhills Community Trust to produce a management plan for 2010 - 2015 for the Windyhills community woodlands.

Freshwater botanical surveys

We were commissioned by W A Fairhurst and partners to undertake a botanical survey of seven freshwater ponds in Aberdeenshire.

Inchailloch Visitor Management Overview

We prepared a visitor management overview for the Park Authority to enable them to better manage and communicate with visitors on Inchcailloch Island. The island forms part of the Loch Lomond National Nature Reserve.
