@pennychrimes @FireflyPress Looking forward to reading your latest book.

SBP has grown in recent years from a small group of pioneers to a highly talented team of rewilding professionals.

As we embark on the next chapter in our exciting journey, we are looking for a new leader with the skills, passion and experience to take our work to the next level. Could this be you?

BREAKING NEWS // Angela Rayner has granted permission for M&S to demolish their Oxford Street flagship store, overturning a decision by the previous Secretary of State.

The chance to set a vision for a more sustainable and creative Britain that reuses its built-heritage has been squandered. Green growth? Not on this evidence.

It’s #WorldRiversDay.

In 6,000km of #rivers across the #Clyde catchment, we only find these black-tailed trout in fewer than 10km.

This is the result of metal toxicity - part of our industrial legacy and still killing fish.

We can do better. #pollution #Scotland

Looks like more bad news for #GlasgowHeritage = walked past the ABC and noticed that a Dangerous Building Notice has been served. It requires the owners to demolish and remove the front and side facades with work to be completed by 9 December 2024. Is this game over…🤔🤷‍♂️😢?

[New Glasgow Society @newglasgowsoc]

Agree!! Councillors, MSPs and MPs, this is the moment we unite and protect our heritage. @PaulJSweeney @ChristyMearns @PJFerguson18 @RuairiKelly_ @Soryia @patrickharvie

A new species in our river?

Yesterday, we found a ruffe in the #Kelvin subcatchment. This is a first for us in 22 years and nearly 3,000 samples.

This is an invasive, non-native species. We know they’re in the local canal and also the adjacent Lomond catchment.

Doors Opening! A huge selection of buildings that @archhfund has helped with @WmGrantFound & #HESsupported funding over the years will be open to explore for @DoorsOpenDays in Sept!
🧵 Here are a few highlights to look out for (NB Glasgow venues will be published later):

[Niall Murphy @MurphyNiallGLA]

#Glasgow’s skyline has been evolving over the last two decades and @GlasgowCC is currently consulting on ‘Tall Buildings design guidance’. So, if this interests you, I’m going to be talking about this at a @newglasgowsoc debate on Thursday 8 August. More details below 👀👇😉👍!

[Dr Lizzie Swarbrick 🇵🇸 @LizzieSwarbrick]

Fowlis Easter - the most complete medieval church in Scotland - is closing and could go on the open market at the end of the year. The loss of it would be catastrophic. I see new wonderful details every time I visit. Come and have a look with me:

For the first time, you can now view this data on an interactive map to find out about sites near you.

Visited the newly opened #Wyllieum art gallery at #Greenock Ocean Terminal yesterday. Good to read more about the Straw Locomotive and Paper Boat, and many others which showcase #GeorgeWylie's great sense of humour. Love the panoramic view of #riverclyde as backdrop 🏞️😎🌞❤️

During the 2010s, day-to-day spending on public services and welfare fell significantly.

Total spending fell by the equivalent to £1,500 per household in today’s money.
