Scottish bathing waters: How can we improve these resources?

Scotland currently has 90 designated bathing waters across the country. In this podcast we are joined by Ruth Stidson, National science lead for bathing water quality in Scotland, and Jackie McColm, Senior Environmental Protection Officer for SEPA.  Our bathing waters are an essential resource to all who use them, and bring multiple benefits to the surrounding area. Here we discuss what bathing waters offer Scotland, looking into the detail at how they are monitored and protected. Through this we discuss how collectively we can work together to improve and manage these areas to the benefits for all who use them.
