Life on Land
UofG Sport is the home of Garscube Sports Complex, a fantastic sports facility with plenty of green space, full of ecosystems and biodiversity. We aim to highlight the brilliant work that takes place to promote conservation and biodiversity.
Wee Forest Project
The University’s Wee Forest was planted in partnership with Earthwatch, an environmental charity that has been planting Wee Forests in the UK since 2020. A Wee Forest is a dense fast-growing native woodland about the size of a tennis court, based on an established forest management method developed in the 1970s by Dr Akira Miyawaki.
