Friends can sign up for as little as £3 per month. Why become our Friend It’s a pleasure to become a “Friend of PKCT”. It is a wonderful organisation, protecting and improving access to the wonderful and varied countryside of Perth & Kinross. I spend a considerable amount of time walking in Perth and Kinross so, as long as we all act responsibly, access is key and beneficial to all. - Bob I’ve joined because I live in Perth and I’m keen to see the development of opportunities for walking in the local area. Although I love the high hills I think it’s important that there are options for those less able (and for when a more gentle route is desired). - Richard I love the Perthshire countryside - many wonderful memories of walks with my parents and all the glorious trees and stunning vistas. I’m happy to support PKCT. - Ann Our Friends' benefits All of our Friends will receive: Friends of PKCT e-newsletter a pack of our leaflets to inspire your next outdoor adventure invitations to events and volunteering opportunities For those donating £10+/month, we will also send you a print of the Birnam Oak (limited numbers).
