Landowner help needed to benefit nature

Can you help achieve ambitious targets for nature recovery in the Suffolk & Essex Coast & Heaths National Landscape?

The National Landscape is working in partnership with landowners and organisations to achieve significant and measurable benefits for nature.

news

Ambitious targets have been set for each National Landscape and National Park by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs for a range of targets covering the following:

  • Restoring/creating wildlife-rich habitats
  • Increasing tree canopy and woodland cover
  • Planting hedgerows
  • Enabling natural regeneration
  • Creating ponds and wetlands

The National Landscape is looking for landowners/land managers to help them deliver the work to meet these targets. If you have land and want to improve its biodiversity potential or change the way it is used, e.g. by planting trees or sowing a wildflower meadow, the National Landscape would love to hear from you.

This would enable them to record your project as an example of nature recovery within the National Landscape. In return, the National Landscape may be able to provide:

  • Informal advice from experienced conservation staff
  • Volunteer support to turn your vision for nature into reality
  • Signposting towards further guidance and/or potential funding
