Influencing decision-makers in Holyrood is crucial to WWF’s advocacy work. We do this by providing up to date, concise briefing material on priority issues and Bills. WWF aims to be the first port of call for parliamentary research staff wanting to find out more about the issues we work on. Our latest parliamentary briefings are on these pages and are available for download.
For more information about our work, please contact our Public Affairs Manager, Robin Parker, on 0131 659 9100.
