Galloway Rivers Trust

The aim of Galloway Rivers Trust is to restore and maintain aquatic health and biodiversity, particularly native fish, in Galloway by means of practical, responsible and sustainable approaches to land, water and fishery management, based on sound science, for the benefit of the community as a whole.

Galloway Rivers Trust (formely Galloway Fisheries Trust) is an environmental charity which was set up in 1988 by four local District Salmon Fishery Boards in the South West of Scotland with common problems and aims.  Since then the Trust has expanded and now encompasses a wide range of work which covers most of Dumfries and Galloway’s rivers and still waters including the Border Esk.
