Preparing local nature recovery strategies is a statutory requirement under the Environment Act 2021.
Preparation and delivery will be supported by government but each local nature recovery strategy (LNRS) will be locally-led with public, private and voluntary sectors working together to agree what should be done to recover nature in the area and helping to do it.
