About us

Wild fish populations are in decline. In fact, the Atlantic salmon has declined by 70% in Scottish rivers since 2000. We exist to reverse this trend.

What we do

Our goal is sustainable wild fish populations. We work to diminish the key threats to wild fish from open-net salmon farming, pollution and over-abstraction.
