During our visit to Dorback, I sat down with Grant Moir, CEO of the Cairngorms National Park Authority, for an incredible episode of The Shoot Room Sessions podcast.🎙️ Grant’s passion for the Cairngorms and his knowledge of the land, wildlife, and heritage are inspiring. 🌱🌳 In this teaser alone, you'll catch Grant’s infectious positivity and forward-thinking approach — but the full episode gives incredible insight and stories from someone who lives and breathes Scotland’s landscapes. 🌄 The full episode lands this Thursday at 1pm! So stay tuned — you won’t want to miss it! https://lnkd.in/esVSZ5j4

Going all the way back to the start of 2024 for today's reflection, the weekend we visited our now good friends at Vango HQ ⛺️ The 'problem' that is improving access to the outdoors takes a million different shapes & sizes. They cannot all be solved at once & it will be a lifetime of hard work to ensure we represent genuine change at CampWild. But this year, we set ourselves the challenge of building the community, tools & resources that make it possible for literally anyone to go wild camping. And that, I believe, we have absolutely smashed out of the park. The reason I mention Vango is because a company of this size & heritage could have turned their noses at a plucky little start up with big dreams. But instead, some of the team there not only got behind our ideas but committed their time & energy to innovating alongside us. In March, we launched our Kit Grade. Which alongside all the other tools (digital route cards, detailed site profiles, Ordnance Survey GPX routes, e-waiver & Snap In-Snap Out, to name just a few) has made it easier than ever to understand the equipment you need to spend 24 hours alone in nature. The Kit Grade is just the first step, with 2025 set to be a year when we introduce a Green Index, Microconservation activities, public transport & farming to every Wild Space to make these experiences a true classroom in the outdoors. Photos from the winter Exped Alex & I took on after meeting Vango (trying out their new 2024 gear!). We hiked our Wild Trails (check back tomorrow for that post!) at Oxygen Conservations stunning Invergeldie Estate in Arctic conditions, it got down to -16 overnight!). #ecoadventure #wildcampingisforeveryone Chris Bishop Jason Gilmour

Earlier this week, we proudly acquired the iconic Dorback Estate in the Cairngorms National Park—a landmark step in delivering positive environmental and social impact. 🌳 Less than 24 hours after the purchase, we had the honour of meeting the local community - a warm and engaged group eager to hear about our vision at Oxygen Conservation. Reflecting on the event it was an inspiring evening, setting the stage for a collaborative journey toward positive environmental and social impact at Dorback Estate. 🌍 This is just the beginning of a meaningful journey together. 🌟 #DorbackEstate #CommunityEngagement #Together

Today’s Investing in Nature panel brought incredible insights into trends and opportunities in nature-based investing 🌱 Rosie Riley was joined by Archie Struthers from Nattergal Ltd and Rich Stockdale PhD from Oxygen Conservation for a powerful discussion on making nature investable—scaling conservation and delivering sustainable impact for people and the planet 🌍 "The impact Archie and Rich are making already, in terms of restoring UK nature, is huge. The investor landscape is changing, private capital is really starting to flow and, with a few tweaks to the BNG market, investments into UK nature will accelerate." - Rosie Riley, Blue Earth Programme Editor #BlueEarthForum #NatureInvesting #ImpactInvesting
