The charity aims to enhance access to paths along the rivers Esk in Midlothian and East Lothian. To this end we have established the Esk Way which is a pathway along the river North Esk from the source in the Pentland Hills to the entry into the Firth of Forth at Musselburgh. We also aim to enhance awareness of the physical, biological, social, cultural, industrial and historical heritage of the Esk rivers and their catchments through public talks and guided walks. Through the management of our land holdings we hope to contribute to enhancing the nature value of the Esk river corridor whilst also encouraging public access to these beautiful places.

Beneficiaries: 'Children or young people','Older People','No specific group, or for the benefit of the community','Other charities or voluntary bodies'

Objectives: The organisation's purposes are: To stimulate public interest and care for the beauty, history and character of the valleys of the Rivers Esk and their surroundings in the Lothians of Scotland. In particular to promote and encourage responsible access and sustainable public amenities in the Esk rivers' catchment area for the benefit of its local communities and others.'
