Schools Programme - Clovenstone and Longstone primary schools took part in the 2009 programme, each undertaking 5 waterway and woodland walks incorporating the Uniion Canal, Water of Leith and Lord Ancum's Wood, Eskbank.
Both schools earned the Discovery Level John Muir Award which were presented at the Scottish Parliament at the kind invitation of Robin Harper MSP.
Community Programme - A number of guided walks were provided for the general public and some invited community organisations including LinkLiving, Wester Hailes Health Agency and patients from Leith Hospital.
Funders - Once again Scottish Natural Heritage provided invaluable funding as did a local private donor.
Forestry Commission Scotland generously provided some funding and the time and expertise of Community Ranger, Jenny Crick on a number of the schools and Community Walks.
