Joe Wright is a 4th year Landscape Architecture student (Edinburgh University) and a fellow orienteer from MAROC. Joe is researching into the social effects of rewilding in Scotland, specifically the effects of the Cairngorms Connect Project as part of his fourth year dissertation.
Joe is asking if BASOC members that live in postcodes PH19-PH26 could complete the questionnaire accessed through this link. All data will be anonymous and your participation is voluntary. It would be greatly appreciated if you could take 5 minutes of your time to do this.
