Not being much into #watersports , the world of electric #hydrofoils had passed me by. Then I saw this one on the #Assynt coast! Pretty impressive it was too!

A stunning winter day on Meall Greigh, at the E end of the Ben Lawers range. Great views in all directions, as far as Ben Nevis and the high Cairngorms. #benlawers #bennevis #winter #scotland #scottishhighlands

We're delighted to spend the morning at Murray Royal Hospital to open newly renovated gardens. A culmination of partnership work over the last year, the gardens encourage patients, staff and families to enjoy #physicalactivity and connect with #nature .

Some signposts from the Peak District National Park, some quite old and some quite informative! #fingerpostfriday

An interesting article in The Guardian today about 'friluftsliv' - being outdoors, in nature, brings lots of benefits. Perhaps we need to promote our excellent access rights and connecting with the outdoors & nature a bit more.
