We are very saddened to hear of the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Her unwavering service to the country, support for communities, charities and volunteers and her warmest of smiles will forever be remembered. We remember the huge sense of pride when Her Majesty & HRH Prince Philip visited North Berwick and the Scottish Seabird Centre to present our volunteers with the Queens Award for Enterprise in 2009. Our sincere condolences go out to the whole Royal Family at this very sad time.

The Lamb, a small island just off the East Lothian coastline, has been declared free from invasive predators following a successful project to remove a rat, after rodent signs were discovered on the island in Autumn 2020. The response has been led by a dedicated team of volunteers from the Lothian Sea Kayak Club, and supported by the Scottish Seabird Centre, the Biosecurity for LIFE project, and the RSPB.
