Welcome to the Cairngorms Campaign

The Cairngorms Campaign is a membership organisation, welcoming individuals and groups as members who support its aims of protection and appreciation of the area.

The Cairngorms Campaign strives to prevent unsustainable, damaging developments and argues for better management of the Cairngorms area. It works with landowners, managers, local authorities, government and agencies to this end.

Its aims are to:-

•  stimulate public interest in the future of the Cairngorms;
  
•  promote public appreciation of and care for the character, beauty and ecology of the Cairngorms area; and
  
•  encourage all concerned to foster or participate in active conservation of the Cairngorms area.

The Cairngorms Campaign was established in 1996 by its predecessor body "Save the Cairngorms Campaign," a coalition of voluntary conservation and outdoor recreation groups. This had been set up as a result of the proposal to extend skiing at Cairngorm into Lurcher's Gully. "Save the Cairngorms Campaign" was founded by 15 founder member bodies. During its existence, the Cairngorms Campaign has recruited over 1100 individuals, as well as clubs and organisations, as paid up members supporting its aims of conservation of the area and its appreciation.

The Campaign is funded entirely through membership subscriptions and donations. The Campaign remains very much a voluntary organisation and it is indebted to its team of volunteers on its Management Group. The Campaign has a self-employed Campaign Officer.

The Cairngorms Campaign is a member of Scottish Environment LINK - voluntary organisations working together to care for and improve Scotland's heritage for people and nature.
