A project aimed at promoting the versatility of the region’s wool has received a cash boost.
The Galloway and Southern Ayrshire UNESCO Biosphere’s The Wool Gathering scheme aims to showcase wool’s diverse potential as a sustainable resource.
And six months on from being launched, it’s received funding from the Blackface Breeders’ Association which will help drive the project forward and raise awareness of the important part sheep farming plays in region’s heritage and economy.
