What does the idea of a ‘Cairngorms National Park’ mean to you? What is it like to live in it? What impact has it had on local lives since its establishment in 2003?
In these six films we contrast six private lives lived out in a National Park. From park ranger to farmer, shop owner to school student and a young mum to a service station proprietor. We learn of the conflicts between preserving the wild beauty of the park – which is home to 25% of the UK’s threatened bird, animal and plant species – and providing new homes for its growing population. We capture the essence of the interviewee in order to provide context to the geographical debates the students will encounter in the module.
Donald will finish school next year, when he hopes to go to University and ultimately become a geography teacher. He’d like to spend some time abroad, but will probably come back to settle in the area. He’d miss friends and the area in equal proportion. There’s so much to do, especially if you’re into adventure sports.
