Overview
This project was commissioned by the Environment Agency and Natural England through the Nature Returns programme, and aimed to map and connect people and organisations with an interest in protecting nature and helping more people benefit from access to green and blue spaces along the River Wansbeck* in Northumberland. We also asked communities, land owners, businesses, public and voluntary organisations how they would like to engage with these spaces and help protect the natural environment in future. Northumberland Rivers Trust and Community Action Northumberland (CAN) partnered with NICRE on this project to help us reach as many local groups and organisations as possible in the area.
