NatureScot

Nature and landscapes are vital assets. We promote and care for the natural heritage, enable people to enjoy the outdoors and support those who manage it.
 
That's why NatureScot exists. Formerly known as Scottish Natural Heritage, NatureScot is the only organisation that looks after all aspects of nature in Scotland, across all parts of Scotland (land and sea) on behalf of everyone who lives in or visits Scotland.
 
Our role is to:
 
- care for nature and landscapes in Scotland
- help deliver health and well-being for people living in or visiting Scotland
- look after a vital asset that supports the Scottish economy
- help address climate change
