Demand is rising and budgets are constrained across Scotland’s public services, but there’s a way forward.
Our whitepaper 'Automate tasks, not jobs: The AI Opportunity for Scotland's Public Services', drops on 9 Feb.

First hike of the year! Ascended through a Narnia like Cardrona Forest up to Birkscairn Hill and back. Bitterly cold on the hill but a beautiful blue sky and great views of snow capped tops in all directions.

Busy day at Gilwell Park 🌳 with The @scouts 🇬🇧 UK Delegation prepping for the 43rd World @scoutconf in Egypt 🇪🇬 this August. Discussed @worldscouting ⚜️, Dr. @callum_kaye’s campaign, and our bid to host the 44th Conference in 2027. See you there!

Wonderful news. Very pleased that His Majesty King Charles III has been confirmed as Patron for @scouts.
That was tough going! A long walk up Glen Fyne to Beinn Bhuide (948m). Some steep bits towards the summit and pretty windy but the 360° panorama of some of Scotland’s finest peaks, some not quite letting go of winter yet, was worthwhile.
#MondayMotivation #BeinnBhuide #Munros
Cracking day on #BuachailleEtiveBeag in #Glencoe, taking in #StobCoireRaineach (925m) and #StobDubh (958m). Great views towards Ben Starav and down Loch Etive, and the neighbouring peaks too.
