Scott has just completed a course in Environmental Science, at the University of Highlands & Islands, and during this time he’s also been out and about volunteering with the Findhorn, Nairn & Lossie Fisheries Trust. He’s helped with a range of tasks; surveying the rivers for invasive species, spraying Giant hogweed and Japanese knotweed and also helping with fisheries work including electro fishing. He's also been able to gain his pesticide spraying qualifiactions while volunteering with the SISI project.

Scott says “I’ve been able to get some really good work experience and loads of practical experience over the last 2 years, I really want to get a job in the outdoors, so helping out has been great for me. It’s also nice to give something back.”

Scott has also worked with us as a Seasonal Project Officer and has since moved on to a role in the environmental sector.
