Dumfries and Galloway is set to become a national leader in landscape‑scale nature recovery as two major regional projects – SCAMP Landscape Connections and the Galloway Fisheries Trust’s Flowing Forward – Restoring Galloway’s Rivers Project – have been jointly selected by the Scottish Government as one of only nine exemplar projects across Scotland.
A new £900,000 fund to support housing regeneration, improve property conditions and help deliver affordable homes across Dumfries and Galloway has been approved by councillors.
