Our Mission: We deliver nature recovery at scale to provide vital benefits for society and sustainable financial returns Our Vision: Global biodiversity recovery driven by focused investment into rewilding degraded ecosystems The survival of all species – including our own – depends on functioning ecosystems.

However, nature is undervalued in the world economy and biodiversity continues to decline at catastrophic speed. Our natural environment is unravelling. Time is of the essence. Our generation must act quickly, boldly and at scale. Nattergal’s purpose is to create serious, focused investment into the restoration of terrestrial and marine ecosystems across the planet.

Aprs
Action to Protect Rural Scotland (APRS) was founded in 1926 and is the only Scottish organisation dedicated exclusively to protecting and enhancing all Scotland’s rural landscapes and countryside, whether at the edge of towns and cities, or in more remote settings. Despite having such a long history (in fact the National Trust for Scotland was founded out of APRS), we are a tiny organisation with five staff. We campaign with communities, on behalf of all landscapes, from the ones surrounding our towns and cities to the wilder landscapes across rural Scotland. Our key campaigns are for the deposit return scheme, for a new National Park for Scotland and on Greenbelt protection and policy. We believe that the quality of people’s surroundings is central to their well-being, and that the quality of Scotland’s countryside is of fundamental importance even to those who spend most of their time in towns and cities. We support communities and individuals to look after and make the most of their local landscapes and we believe that Scotland’s countryside has a key role to play in tackling the climate emergency and addressing the nature crisis. We work from a small, friendly office which we share with Scottish Environment LINK. All our staff members work flexibly and part time, and we will work to accommodate those with family, caring or other responsibilities.

The Association For Coastal Ecosystem Services
The Association for Coastal Ecosystem Services (ACES) is a Scottish registered charity set up with the aim of conserving coastal habitats in tropical regions whilst working towards alleviating poverty around such habitats. The mechanism for achieving this is through the use of payments for ecosystem services, primarily carbon based credit schemes. It’s first pioneering project, a community based payment-for-ecosystem services conservation project called Mikoko Pamoja was set up by the communities of Gazi and Makongeni to conserve their nearby mangrove forests. In doing so, the carbon that has be stored as a result of these forests not being cut down, has meant that the communities are able to benefit from the sale of carbon credits, issued by the Plan Vivo Foundation, a third party, independent non-profit organization also based in Scotland. The money earned from these credits to date, has funded communal community development projects such as supplying new roofing materials for Gazi primary school and by paying for new books for the school of Macongeni Village. Through research and education, The Association for Coastal Ecosystem Services has assisted in building capacity for the project, in order to ensure its long-term persistence. Together with numerous research institutions and other non-profit organizations, ACES hopes Mikoko Pamoja can act as a model for a successful payments-for-ecosystems services project in East Africa, the first of its kind with a focus of mangrove conservation and poverty alleviation. We hope to expand our efforts in the future, with partners and private individuals who wish to contribute, making a difference for the people living in these volatile regions of the world, and the habitats that surround them.
