Education is an important part of the Trust’s work, with the aim of inspiring young people about the value of our natural world.
We run education programmes at all three of our visitor centres and we have a dedicated team of Teacher Naturalists at Montrose Basin available for school workshops and events.
We also have a range of online resources which can help you learn more about Scotland’s wildlife.
If you would like to find out more about our education work, please contact Gill Hatcher by emailing ghatcher@scottishwildlifetrust.org.uk
