Cairngorms National Park Authority Site
Company Overview:
The Cairngorm area was made a National Park in September 2003 because it is a unique and special place that needs to be cared for - both for the wildlife and countryside it contains and for the people who live in it, manage it and visit it. It is Britain's largest National Park.
The Cairngorms National Park Authority is charged with its care and was established to meet the four key aims as outlined by the National Parks (Scotland) Act 2000:
- To conserve and enhance the natural and cultural heritage of the area.
- To promote sustainable use of the natural resources of the area.
- To promote understanding and enjoyment (including enjoyment in the form of recreation) of the special qualities of the area by the public.
- To promote sustainable economic and social development of the area's communities.
