If you want to find out about the power of work being done to make a difference to climate and biodiversity right here in Angus, look no further than the River South Esk Catchment Partnership’s brand-new website www.theriversouthesk.org
The River South Esk Catchment Partnership (RSECP) website holds a wealth of information and insight into what the award-winning catchment partnership does and why.
Established in 2005, the RSECP has delivered a range of projects across the catchment from the 'Wild South Esk' to the landscape scale restoration project 'Restoring the River South Esk – Nature Restoration Fund'. The website highlights 27 projects across the catchment area that have been delivered by a wide network of stakeholders.
Each project, whether large or small, sees stakeholders working with communities and land managers to increase the resilience of nature, places and the economy in this very special part of the world.
RSECP Chair Roger Owen said: “The River South Esk Catchment Partnership is a very effective collaboration of stakeholders which oversees many improvement projects in this vitally important river catchment.
Our newly launched, easy to navigate, website is the gateway to finding out who we are, what we do, our many projects, the state of the local environment and how we engage with landowners, farmers, communities and other stakeholders.
It is also the place to discover volunteering opportunities and how to join with us in protecting this catchment and its resources.”
There is a raft of information on the website about the local environment and the impacts that raise challenges for our local wildlife and ecosystems, land managers and communities.
There are a host of places to explore along the length of the River South Esk, from the legendary Angus Glens to the county’s coastal reaches. Whether walking, biking, climbing, picnicking, fishing or birdwatching, there are opportunities for athletic and more leisurely pastimes.
It’s where you’ll details of upcoming events and find out about how you can volunteer for a biodiversity project or organisation.
It's important to watch this space as the RSECP will be consulting on their new catchment management plan. With more information to be available in spring 2026, it’s a chance for you to have your say.
