This project builds on an initial study in 2021 and helps us better understand the challenges being faced by young salmon as they head out to sea. Some cutting edge, nationally significant science taking place right here in Galloway.

The project is led by Galloway Fisheries Trust, supported by a range of partners as detailed in the attached. Many thanks to all. The Galloway Glens Scheme is an initiative of the Council’s Environment Team, primarily funded by a grant from The National Lottery Heritage Fund.
