Biggest ever nationwide initiative to restore nature in England set for launch


ENGLAND-WIDE INITIATIVE LAUNCHED ON 5 NOVEMBER 2020

Government 25 year environment plan to recover nature across the length and breadth of the country, and help everybody access and enjoy it.

The Nature Recovery Network (NRN) Delivery Partnership, led by Natural England, brings together representatives from over 600 organisations (Government, landowners, businesses, conservationists and farmers).


The Nature Recovery Network will:

  • Restore 75% of protected sites to favourable condition so nature can thrive.

  • Create or restore at least 500,000 additional hectares of wildlife-rich habitat outside of protected sites.

  • Recover our threatened and iconic animal and plant species by providing more habitat and wildlife corridors to help species move in response to climate change.

  • Support the planting of 180,000 ha of woodland.

  • Deliver a range of wider benefits, including carbon capture, flood management, clean water, pollination and recreation.

  • Bring nature much closer to people, where they live, work, and play, boosting health and wellbeing.
