Past Projects

An initiative managed through the Tweed Forum with the aim "to conserve, enhance and raise awareness of the natural, built and cultural heritage of the rivers and valleys of the Tweed.

The Community Wildlife Officer Post supported volunteer staffing and community events for the Osprey Watch centres at Glentress Forest and Kailzie Gardens near Peebles, as well as the Philiphaugh Salmon Viewing Centre near Selkirk.

The objective of the Project was to create appropriately sited new wetland habitats for Great Crested Newts (GCN) in the central Borders area.

The Tweed Water Vole Initiative was set up to investigate the status of the endangered water vole in the Tweed catchment.
