About this Event
Discover Nature Award - Find your place
The Discover Nature Award is a free, two-day experience for 18–28-year-olds in Scotland, co-designed by our participants and run by Borders Forest Trust to help you reconnect with the land, with others, and with yourself.
Just like our DNA, the award has two strands, our Discover Day and Nature Day, held together by four bases: Knowledge, Community, Action, and Connection. These form the living code of the Discover Nature Award, guiding you from environmental challenges to nature-based solutions.
You don’t need experience, gear or prior knowledge, just curiosity and a willingness to get involved.
Register Your Interest
We’re getting everything in place to launch our full 2026 Discover Nature Award calendar in Edinburgh and Glasgow, following a successful pilot in 2025 – and we’re super excited for a full year of outdoor experiences, nature skills, and community action!
If you’d like to be the first to hear when events go live and get early access to tickets, sign up here to register your interest. There’s no commitment – just a chance to stay in the loop and be part of something special.
