Murton Wildlife Trust for Environmental Education’s primary aim is to use nature as a route to educating members of the community. Based near Forfar in Angus, it runs an 80 acre nature reserve and wildlife haven with open public access and path networks accessible to all. Its work with at-risk young people involves introducing them to new opportunities in land management, wildlife, horticulture, natural heritage and the environment. This brings a range of benefits, from increasing skills to supporting them to re-engage with education or training.

14:19 Fund investment will be used to develop and expand these services, to develop an on-site farm and to pay for two staff members and running costs. 75 to 100 young people will be supported each year.
