The Making Space for Nature project, which is developing the Local Nature Recovery Strategy for Kent and Medway, is reaching its halfway point. So far, Making Space for Nature has seen genuine participation from over 450 individuals who, amongst them, represent over 200 different organisations and businesses from across the county. As a result of this collaboration, the Local Nature Recovery Strategy is really taking shape, with the priorities and actions for nature recovery established, and the refinement of these continuing over the coming months.
Now the development of the strategy approaches arguably its most crucial stage ‘the mapping stage’, which will bring all the work together as a complete strategy. Where should we focus future nature recovery work? How do we stitch together the tapestry of nature recovery action that is already happening across the county? And how will this mapping influence land use in Kent?
