Edinburgh Branch Meeting – Restoring Scottish Nature

Meeting the Challenges of Restoring Scotland’s Nature

In the next few branch meetings, we’ll be hearing from a range of speakers on the topics we think will matter most in the Holyrood election campaign between now and May 2026. 

This month we’ll be focusing on Nature Restoration and hearing from Lorna Slater MSP on her vision for the actions we need to take after the Nature Environment Bill.  We’ll also be joined by Peg Shaw (Fauna & Flora) and Charlotte Maddix (The Rewilding Scotland Alliance) to share their thoughts on how we meet the challenge of restoring Scotland’s nature from a community and third sector perspective. 

Please note our new time of 7pm start.  Non-members are welcome to join us for this speaker session.

Our members’ meeting from 8.10pm to 9pm will be a chance to hear an update on how our Councillor Group are engaging in the Edinburgh Council budget process and share your thoughts on this.
