Clinging by a Claw, created by Saving Wildcats and produced by SCOTLAND: The Big Picture, offers an extraordinary insight into the journey of Scotland's wildcats from the brink of extinction to their return to the wilds of the Cairngorms National Park.
Narrated by Outlander star Sam Heughan, this film captures the breathtakingly beautiful landscapes of the Scottish Highlands where wildcats could have a future if they continue to receive the vital support they need.
This heart-warming story takes you into the lives of these rare and elusive animals, revealing hidden moments never seen before.
After the screening, join an exclusive panel discussion and Q&A with wildlife presenter Chris Packham and members of the Saving Wildcats team. Guests will also have the opportunity to support Scottish wildcat restoration efforts throughout the evening.
Tickets include a free drink (non-alcoholic options available) and for a further donation to Saving Wildcats, attendees will receive an exclusive bundle consisting of a tote bag, notebook, pin badge and sticker.
Attendees will have the opportunity to speak with members of the Saving Wildcats team prior to the event in the venue’s auditorium and purchase items to support Scottish wildcat conservation efforts from 6.30pm.
