First Minister sets out priorities for Government.

Scotland’s recovery from the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic will be driven by an ambitious programme to build a modern, high-tech economy while staying true to enduring values of fairness and compassion, First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has said.

Celebrating the inspirational people, projects, groups and organisations working hard to protect our environment, the Nature of Scotland Awards are now open for entries.

Applications are open for Community Path grants to support communities to create, promote and maintain local community paths.

Run by Paths for All, the grant scheme is open to any constituted community group that have their own bank account. Community organisations and registered community charities such as community councils, development trusts and community woodland groups working in Scotland can all apply for funding. 

Walking is good for our minds, our bodies and our neighbourhoods and has been a lifeline during the past year, helping people stay active and connected.
