RSPB Nature Awards celebrates tourism

Nature Tourism Award

This award seeks to recognise tourism businesses and initiatives that are going beyond simply reducing their negative impact on the environment and are making a positive difference for nature through:

• being a champion of responsible tourism
• supporting Scotland develop as a sustainable destination
• implementing nature-based solutions that protect, restore or create thriving natural habitats.

Types of projects

Projects can be achieved by a single business or in collaboration with other sector or community partners. All applications will be judged based on what you’ve achieved in relation to the size and scale of your business.

Smaller initiatives might involve growing pollinator-friendly plants, for example, while larger ones might be supporting the restoration of some of Scotland’s iconic habitats. Whatever the scale of your project, RSPB are keen to find out how you’re taking action for nature.
