The county of Essex has a beautifully diverse landscape, ranging from ancient woodlands, farming fields and wetlands, to flowing rivers, urban areas and the long, enticing coastline. More than ever, wildlife and their habitats are under threat for survival. It’s time for us to all play our part in assisting nature recovery in our county.

The Essex Local Nature Recovery Strategy (LNRS) provides a new vision for our natural spaces, and the draft strategy is open for public consultation for your input and feedback. Introduced by the Environment Act in 2021, the strategy identifies opportunities for the creation of new habitats, which are most likely to provide the greatest benefit for nature and the wider environment. It has been created with input from landowners, farmers, environmental NGOs, charities, local authorities and members of the public.

The draft LNRS aims to reverse the ongoing decline in wildlife and habitats. By enhancing our green infrastructure and increasing access to nature, we can also tackle broader environmental issues such as flood risk management, air quality, and climate adaptation. This will help us create a thriving environment for future generations.

Take part in the consultation and share your insights to help shape a healthier, more biodiverse future for our city.

Consultation closes 25 October 2024
