WHY REWILD?
Rewilding locks away carbon, returns wildlife to our landscapes and allows communities to prosper, by restoring and revitalising the living systems upon which we all depend.
Investing in rewilding across Scotland sets your business apart. It shows your staff, customers and supporters that you’re committed to addressing the climate and nature emergencies, and to a Scotland where people thrive.

BESPOKE PARTNERSHIPS
We collaborate with a wide range of land partners across Scotland to enable rewilding at a landscape-scale.
This provides wide-ranging opportunities for businesses to have a transformational impact, delivering benefits for nature, climate and people.
Opportunities for bespoke partnerships include:
- The restoration of forests, wetlands and rivers at a landscape scale.
- The return of missing species, such as beavers, cranes or lynx.
- The purchase of metrics-based rewilding credits to meet ESG goals.
THE REWILDING FUND
Income from our business partnerships is ringfenced in a first-of-its-kind impact fund dedicated to ecological recovery in Scotland. The Rewilding Fund provides a direct pathway for businesses to invest in actions that lock up carbon, boost biodiversity and build community value.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How does rewilding lock away carbon?
The restoration of natural habitats, such as native woodlands, peatlands, wetlands and saltmarshes, creates a carbon sink. Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is effectively trapped within the plants and soil in a process known as carbon sequestration.
How does my support help wildlife?
Many of Scotland’s natural habitats are diminished and fragmented. Rewilding seeks to expand, revitalise and connect existing habitats, as well as creating new ones. In doing so, new opportunities emerge for greater abundance and diversity of wildlife.
How does my support help people?
Native woodlands clean our air and water. Healthy peatlands store carbon. Re-naturalised rivers slow the flow of water, reducing the impact of flooding. All of these invaluable ‘services’ and many more, are provided when ecosystems are healthy and intact. What’s more, rewilding can create economic, social and health opportunities for communities.
All contributions go directly to a ring-fenced Rewilding Fund. Funding is then allocated to practical rewilding actions within our land partner networks, which operate at both a landscape-scale, and across smaller farms, crofts and community landholdings.
Is this a carbon offsetting offer?
We consider the Rewilding Fund to be a catalyst for nature recovery and therefore, distinct from simply compensating for carbon emissions created elsewhere. All of the rewilding actions supported by the Fund help to lock away carbon and mitigate the impact of climate breakdown, as well as having wider benefits to biodiversity and people.
How do I know my investment is making a difference?
We monitor and measure change using a variety of metrics and report annually on the impact your support has had. In many cases, our business partners are encouraged to visit rewilding sites to witness change and impact for themselves.
How can I tell the story of the change that my support has made?
We believe passionately in the power of storytelling and our talented team of writers, photographers and filmmakers, can bring to life the rewilding successes that your investment brings about.
Are there other ways for my business to support rewilding?
If a partnership isn’t for you, there are many other ways to support the recovery of nature in Scotland.
- Tell your staff, suppliers and customers about SCOTLAND: The Big Picture and the work we do.
- Get your colleagues together and book an exclusive Rewilding Journey in the Cairngorms National Park.
- Make SCOTLAND: The Big Picture your charity of the year.
- Sponsor one of our inspiring events or create your own business fundraiser.
