Our work over the past 12 months | 2025 Annual Report published

17 September 2025

FacebookTweetEmailLinkedIn

We’ve just published our annual report, and we’re excited to share a look back at everything we accomplished this year 2024/2025 – thanks to our amazing members, volunteers and staff.

Read the report

Over the last 12 months we have focused on:

  1. Getting people walking more and driving less
  2. How to raise funds for sustainable transport
  3. Tackling inequalities in transport

Our report also features important progress made in championing rail travel over air in parliament and giving bus users priority. In the coming months, we’ll be focusing on shaping party manifestos in the run-up to the 2026 elections.

George Lowder MBE, Chair of Transform Scotland, reflects on our activities over the last year:

“This Annual Report summarises the significant outputs delivered by Transform in the past year. This highlights the breadth of Transform’s engagement across a number of modes and topics: including, but not exclusively, bus priority work through ‘Life in the Bus Lane’, behaviour change with the award winning ‘A Wee Walk Works Wonders’ media campaign, an excellent event at Holyrood advocating for rail over air for cross-border travel, supporting the Cross Party Group’s inequalities work ‘Mind the Gap’ and presenting ideas to fund sustainable transport.”

“Looking ahead, we have the Scottish Parliament elections in May 2026 – and work has already begun to help influence policy, regardless of the complexion of the next Scottish Government. Mindful of the Scottish Spending Review, Infrastructure Investment Pipeline refresh, and 2026-27 Budget we will make the case that policy promises must be aligned with funding to achieve sustainable transport priorities.”
