Another brilliant day of conservation volunteering for our #AdventureExpeditions residential team. Kate Sampson from the NTS came all the way out to us in Lochranza today, and we got stuck into clearing invasive rhododendrons at a new site. Kate also explained to the team all about the habitat restoration work that is happening on the NTS Goatfell property and the island wide challenges of grazing pressure, peat loss, and deforestation. #JohnMuirAward
Wahoo! Golden eagles, otters, peat bogs, archaeology, caves, geology.... what a fabby day in the office! The walk around the Cock of Arran always delivers but today was epic. Two happy leaders and 11 inquisitive and energetic young people... Everyone will eat and sleep well tonight. #JohnMuirAward. #AdventureExpeditions

Day one of our first #AdventureExpeditions Arran John Muir Award residential of 2023.

We hit the ground running with some volunteering with Malcolm and Jamie from the #arrangeopark. Everyone loved bashing bracken, clearing the Postman's Path above Lochranza, one of the wilder sections of Arran's Coastal Way.

We are based in Lochranza all week and are looking forward to discovering the wildlife around the village. 🦌🦭🦦🐿
