About Us

Who we are

The Southern Uplands Partnership (SUP) is a rural development charity, started in 1999 by local people keen to keep the communities and countryside of the south of Scotland alive and healthy.

The charity spans the breadth of southern Scotland from Dumfries & Galloway in the west to the Scottish Borders in the east, and works with a whole host of people, groups, government bodies, agencies and councils.

We've been quiet on posting about the SW Scotland Coastal Way lately. We are still here but have been working hard behind the scenes doing lots of 'adminy stuff' and hope to update on this in the next few weeks so hold tight!
In the meantime can you guess the location of these stunning coastal areas? Some might be easier than others!

Our contractors GroundsCo have put in two new benches along the Glencaple path, to provide a bit of respite to walkers or those who just want to sit and enjoy the view.
Providing respite points along paths are one of the targets for the South West Scotland Coastal Way project, which will see a long distance walking route marked out along our Dumfries and Galloway coastline between Gretna and Portpatrick.
