Climate Ready Tayside
Preparing people and places for a thriving future
Tayside is diverse region in Scotland, with thriving cities alongside rural communities. We have nationally important cultural assets, prime agricultural land and outstanding nature and recreational opportunities. We have a proud history of design and innovation, ports that support the local economy, and a growing movement of locally led climate action. The River Tay shapes our communities, towns and landscape from the river, to the estuary and out into the North Sea.
Tayside’s location makes it vulnerable to the impacts of climate change and extreme weather, such as flooding, storms, sea level rise and coastal erosion. The assets that make our region so special are also under threat.
Climate Ready Tayside is a new partnership bringing together public, private and community organisations to prepare people and places for a thriving future, in our changing climate.
