Thanks to funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund, a £8 million Restoration Project is currently in the construction phase. Find out more about the Saughton Park restoration project.

The project received a major boost thanks to funding from the Scottish Power (SP) Energy Networks Green Economy Fund. Almost £1/2 million has been awarded toward the delivery of a micro hydro-electric system on the Water of Leith, which will power two ground source heat pumps and generate energy for the park’s lighting and buildings once their refurbishment is complete. Find out more about the green energy project
