Company ProfileNansen Highland in Scotland is a non-governmental organisation and a company with charitable status, originally motivated by the life and work of the Norwegian humanitarian and explorer Fridtjof Nansen. The organisation first established it's presence in 1969 in Herefordshire. Nansen International Children's Centre (NICC) provided holidays for children from the inner cities. The centre was run on a purely voluntary basis and ceased it's operations 8 years later. The organisation moved to the Highlands in 1991 under the name of The Nansen Society. Finally, The Nansen Society changed it's name into Nansen Highland on 1st of April 1999 and became a Scottish charity. The emphasis of the organisation changed over the years and holidays for inner city children are no longer it's key element. Nansen Highland now principally provides training for young adults with learning disabilities and related disabilities. Nansen Highland is a training centre and employer committed to equal opportunities.
