Nature is in crisis, one in six species facing extinction due to habitat loss, climate change, pollution, invasive species and disease.

The Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent Local Nature Recovery Strategy (LNRS) is a collaborative effort to turn things around.

The LNRS aims to improve and create vital habitats like woodlands, rivers, and meadows. This will benefit not only wildlife but also communities, by providing more access to nature rich spaces.

LNRS is a strategy outlining where habitat should be created for specific species and which habitats need improvement. The aim is to have a county where 30 per cent of land is managed for wildlife by 2030.

The delivery of the LNRS is being managed by Staffordshire County Council but a partnership approach is essential involving all local councils, environmental charities, landowners, communities and local businesses.

Importantly, LNRS is a critical element in tackling climate change. Nature can help through biodiverse, healthy functioning habitats which hold more carbon and naturalised rivers, wetlands and peat can also store more water, reducing flooding.

There will be plenty of opportunities to get involved, share your ideas, and help shape the future of our nature world. By working together, we can make Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent a haven for nature.
