Wildland’s 200 year vision of landscape-scale conservation in the Scottish Highlands is, after more than a decade of concerted efforts, seeing real and remarkable results. We’re proud of that but we know that our investment in Scotland’s wild land won’t just help nature heal itself – sustainable and thriving local communities lie at the heart of our vision.

Yet we know that Covid-19 has taken a severe toll in our communities, particularly among young people whose educations have been disrupted and who have faced – and are still facing – very significant barriers to finding employment. Even as we look forward to reopening businesses and coming together again following lockdown we must not forget that many young people will need extra help if they are to feel part of Scotland’s recovery.
