About Us
Naturedays is the project title for the work of The Aigas Trust for Environmental Education which was established in 1980. Based 20 minutes west of Inverness on the Aigas Field Centre estate, we offer a wide range of educational programmes, including bespoke sessions, to children and adults, both on the estate and offsite.

Chloe Denerley
Education Manager
They/Them
My background is in ecology, but I have worked in environmental education since finishing my PhD. I love helping people of all ages to see the world a bit differently: focusing on the details around them, then zooming out to put their lives and actions in a global context.

Milo Mole
Education Officer
He/Him
I come from a background in Marine Biology, having studied Bioscience and Zoology at university. I worked with whale sharks in the Philippines and surveyed marine mammals whilst living in a lighthouse on the West Coast of Scotland, where I fell for the Scottish Highlands. I love birdwatching and try to bring my enthusiasm for wildlife to people of all ages.
The Magnus House
Naturedays is very lucky to be based in the Magnus House, a beautiful eco-friendly building that was opened in 2009. Almost all the materials used in this magnificent building were sourced within 100 miles, such as the larch cladding and stone walls. Solar panels produce energy for the building, and an air-source heat pump provides the small amount of heat needed to keep it warm alongside the turf roof and insulated walls containing recycled plastic. It is named after the late Magnus Magnusson, writer, broadcaster, and a great friend of Sir John Lister-Kaye.
Magnus House facilities:
Wheelchair access
Audio-visual facilities with hearing loop
100 person capacity
Spacious entrance with coat hooks
Toilets with disabled access and baby changing facilities

Aigas Field Centre
The Aigas estate is a beautiful place to learn, with a vast array of habitats and wildlife on our doorstep. As a private estate it offers a safe environment to explore the outdoors, with features such as a dipping platform by the loch, wildlife hides and archaeological sites.
