Nature Recovery Plan

How We Plan to Make a Difference

Our Nature Recovery Action Plan sets out our short, medium and long term impact for Nature Conservation in North East Wales.

Grasslands

Grassland makes up nearly two thirds of the land cover in Wales. However most of this is agriculturally improved (reseeded, fertilised or drained), with only 9% attributed to semi-natural grassland.

Our Plans:
  • Map our grassland habitat and related projects across North East Wales
  • Increase the extent of grasslands under favourable management
  • Increase grassland extent and resilience in North East Wales
Read Full Recovery Plan

Woodland

Wales is one of the least wooded countries in Europe with woodland providing only 14.8% of land cover compared to an EU average of 38%.

Our Plans:
  • Map our woodland habitat and related projects across North East Wales
  • Increase the extent of native broadleaf, mixed woodland and trees under favourable management
  • Increase native broadleaf and mixed woodland, canopy cover, connecivity and resilience in North East Wales

Rivers, Ponds and Wetlands

Despite water quality in rivers generally improving over the last 25 years, only 1 in 6 freshwater habitat types are considered in favourable conservation status.

Our Plans:
  • Map our wetland habitat and related projects across North East Wales
  • Increase the extent of rivers, ponds and wetland habitats under favourable management
  • Increase wetland extent and resilience in North East Wales

How You Can Help

Do you want to do something for nature near you?

Our partners often have opportunities for you to get involved by attending events or taking part in activities. This may be anything from tree planting or species specific monitoring to wildlife fun days, face to face or online training courses. There are also National campaigns which you can often get involved in, in your local area.
