A collective of design agencies from Scotland’s creative industries scene has played a central role in the Royal Bank of Scotland’s pioneering “The People’s Money” bank notes, with the first in the ‘Fabric of Nature’ series being the £5 note released in 2016 and culminating with the £20 note in 2020. Design consultancy Nile, O Street, Stuco Design and Timorous Beasties are the main agencies to have supported the creative design process for Royal Bank of Scotland, while almost 30 different designers have been involved to date. Timorous Beasties were tasked with illustrating elements of the Scottish natural world; Otters, mackerel, red squirrels and, of course, midgies.
Why the stramash about animals on #banknotes?
Scotland's money has a braw blend of craiturs on ane side, a notable Scottish men and women on the other.

It is the view of the #keepScotlandTheBrand campaign that genetic editing technology is useful science, but that it should be kept in the laboratory, not out in fields across Scotland.
“There will be countries all over the world doing the same thing but to be a place where nations can come to get seed, food and drink that doesn’t have any of those concerns is so important, especially if you’re looking at the organic market”

This is good news for Scotland’s #Dairy sector, and good news for Scotland
When we started working to #keepScotlandtheBrand, there were those who derided the issues we raised
It is good to see the campaign for Scotland’s brand - supported by thousands of people - now recognised the UK Government
#Scotland produces so many delicious #Dairy products.
The Spanish are in for a cheesey treat.
Of course, trade across European markets would be so much easier without #Brexit dragging us down
But today is a good day for #ScottishDairy
