Cumbria is one of 48 strategy areas that are required by the Environment Act to develop a Local Nature Recovery Strategy (LNRS) for their area. The LNRS sets out priorities for nature recovery. It identifies and maps where actions, known as potential measures, can have the biggest positive impact. By using evidence, data, expert opinion, and by listening to what’s important to people and communities, the LNRS makes it easier to plan and take action at a local level. Westmorland and Furness Council are the ‘Responsible Authority’ for the Cumbria LNRS.
