02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
Restoring Upland Nature (RUN) is a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation established to advance environmental protection and improvement through the conservation and restoration of golden eagles and other upland species in the UK. We support the recovery of golden eagle populations and the restoration of healthy, biodiverse upland ecosystems, particularly in southern Scotland and northern England. We achieve this through practical conservation projects, population monitoring, research and evidence-based conservation. We work in partnership with landowners, farmers, gamekeepers, rural communities, conservation organisations and public bodies to promote nature recovery and sustainable upland management. We also raise public awareness and understanding of upland wildlife through education, outreach and community engagement. By combining scientific evidence, practical conservation and collaborative working, we aim to deliver lasting benefits for wildlife, habitats and people.
