Bright Green Nature is a nature restoration charity based in the Scottish Borders.
We are thrilled to launch our new website with a special gift for you – a Mindful Minute from Deer Park. Please take a moment to pause, breathe, and immerse yourself in the peace of this beautiful place. Notice how it makes you feel and let nature’s calm inspire you.
Our aim is to empower and enable communities to protect nature in the places they love and to restore and protect rare and vulnerable habitats.
We work exclusively at small scale and grass roots level, working alongside communities to restore the places that they value.
We rely on the help of our valued volunteers and partners to achieve our ambitions.
Get in touch to learn how you can join us and help to make a difference.
