  • Royal Highland Education Trust – Lothians

    July 2024

    The Royal Highland Education Trust (RHET) Lothians helps young people to develop food literacy through experiential learning opportunities required in the Curriculum for Excellence. They are a charity that provides world-class learning opportunities about farming, food production, the outdoors and the countryside (including forestry, estate management and environmental awareness) for 3-18 year olds in Edinburgh and the Lothians. Their main focus is to support school pupils to visit working farms to learn where their food comes from, or to support a farmer volunteer to deliver a talk to the pupils in the classroom. To ensure equality for as many children as possible, RHET requested funding for multiple buses to maximize participation and additional resources to educate the next generation about the importance of Scottish agriculture.
