We officially reveal our new brand. After almost 30 years of widening access to Scotland’s outdoors, we’re ready to be bolder about who we are and what we do.
Our new name reinforces our position as the country’s national authority on walking and wheeling. It builds on decades of proven impact while setting ambitious goals for the future. We envision a Scotland where everyone, regardless of who they are or where they live has access to safe, welcoming environments to walk and wheel.
