Working in partnership with the River Bollin Environmental Action and Conservation (BEACON) group, Cheshire East Council, Tatton Estates, National Trust and Natural England, the funding will help us boost the biodiversity of the River Bollin and help bring it back to health. We will also be engaging with local communities to improve their connection to their local river for health, wellbeing and recreation.
Working with our partners and local volunteers, the funding will help us reverse the decline of native plant species along the River Bollin, planting native trees and wildflowers to improve river valley habitats. Additionally, we will carry out work to restore some priority river reaches that are prone to erosion or siltation.
The funding will support our work to create new reedbeds to tackle diffuse pollution and improve the condition of the internationally important Tatton Mere wetland site.
The Government's Green Recovery Challenge Fund was developed by Defra and its Arm's-Length Bodies The fund is being delivered by The National Lottery Heritage Fund in partnership with Natural England, the Environment Agency and Forestry Commission.
