Join the Nature for Everyone campaign
The campaign calls for a ‘legal right to nature’ to be a key component of the Government’s Levelling Up reforms.
More than 60 nature, planning, health and equality organisations, including CPRE, have launched the campaign calling for Government to:
– make equal access to thriving natural spaces a key measure of success for Levelling Up
– set legal duties in Levelling Up legislation for developers and public bodies to provide equal access to nature-rich green and blue spaces for everyone
– provide funding for locally-accessible nature-rich spaces including extending the Levelling Up Fund to green and blue infrastructure projects.
New research from Wildlife and Countryside Link on access to nature shows: a huge public demand for more and better natural spaces; the massive benefits this could have for our communities (particularly the most deprived and excluded); and the need for national and local leaders to deliver.
