Tim Miller (BSc 2019) has been awarded The Scottish Youth Award for Excellence in Mountain Culture by the West Highland College UHI and the Fort William Mountain Festival. Tim is the sixth recipient of the award, which was established in 2015 and celebrates adventurous young people who demonstrate determination and who give back to the community. 

Tim went to The Glasgow Academy and, after graduating, volunteered his time to giving back to the programme to work with young climbers. Tim now runs his own business, Miller Mountain Guides, to teach and share his passion for mountain climbing.

Tim said: ‘I am really delighted and humbled to be receiving the Youth Mountain Culture Award this year. It has come as a big surprise and it was a lovely gesture by Rob MacKenzie [2017 youth winner] to nominate me. Well done also to Colin Prior on his Scottish Award for Excellence in Mountain Culture.’
