Mersey Rivers Trust is bringing together local leaders in coastal, catchment and marine partners to form a local working group. This project is working alongside the North West Coastal Forum and the Coastal Partnerships Network.
The aim of the group is to co-design a national framework to streamline the communication and implementation of Government strategies for a wholescape approach across catchment, coast and marine.
Mersey Rivers Trust through this project is establishing a stakeholder group who together have been reviewing various plans and strategies from the last 30 years. The group is now developing a "blueprint" for the future of the Mersey Estuary.
In the Mersey Estuary there have been five major documents which have helped shape the existance, monitoring and develop in the estuary zone.
A future Mersey Estuary Blueprint will need to include new elements to safeguard against the pressures of the future.
During the project key documents have been discussed and made available to the working group. You can find these online below:
