Scottish Bat Project

The Scottish Bat Project started in April 2003. The project is funded by Scottish Natural Heritage and managed by the Bat Conservation Trust.

The aims of the project are to:

  • Promote greater awareness of bats in Scotland
  • Enable more people in Scotland to appreciate and enjoy bats and get involved in bat conservation
  • Develop the network and activities of Scottish Bat Groups, capacity build and share ideas between groups
  • Co-ordinate, recruit and train volunteers to take part in bat conservation projects in Scotland
  • Identify and, as appropriate, co-ordinate priority projects to focus local bat conservation work in Scotland

The project officer is Anne Youngman. Anne is based in:
