The-Potential-Socio-economic-Impacts-of-New-National-Park-Galloway-SCNP Report 5

SCNP and The Association for the Protection of Rural Scotland have released new research which clearly demonstrates that a Galloway National Park would boost the economy of a remote and fragile community, currently suffering from limited and seasonal employment, as well as protect the landscape.  Using evidence from the worldwide network of National Parks, the detailed new report, The Potential Socio-economic Impacts of a New National Park for Galloway, argues convincingly that designating a National Park would boost the number of UK and international visitors to Galloway, and would generate much-needed additional jobs and income in one of the more fragile and remote parts of rural Scotland.
