EDUCATION
As a forward-thinking company with an exceptional reputation for both tradition and innovation, the Buccleuch Group is uniquely placed to realise the best of all the past has offered while relishing the challenges of the future.
The children of today are our biggest link to tomorrow and Buccleuch has long recognised the importance of helping to educate them by giving them the learning tools necessary to ensure the continued preservation of our special heritage and countryside.
Fulfilling their commitment to education, the Buccleuch family have provided many educational opportunities, not least under the Buccleuch Sporting banner.
These include:
- offering keepering traineeships to young would-be game keepers, giving them hands-on work experience in all aspects of Field Sports.
- our free 'Have a Go Days', giving the novice fisherman an opportunity to experience the sport under expert tuition in the most beautiful surroundings of some of Scotland's best rivers.
- Free Young Handler/Novice Days, offering tuition to young people wishing to train their gundogs for use in field sports or trialling.
- Free Schools Open Days, giving school children the opportunity to see for themselves the importance of a sustainable, thriving rural environment, with valuable hands-on practical experence while gaining an insight into the range of businesses and skills, including Sporting, needed to help steward the heritage of these special estates.
