About Us
Nature Recovery in Harleston arose while developing the Neighbourhood Plan. Local people expressed a wish for the parish to be defined as a Nature Recovery Area.
​
Redenhall with Harleston Town Council are supporting the community in bringing the wish to life.
What is Our Nature Recovery?
Our Nature Recovery is a very simple concept whereby everyone can get involved, working together with a sense of common purpose. Everyone does what they can to help nature, supporting each other and sharing ideas.
​
People are already carrying out actions which support nature recovery - providing food and water for birds, building bug houses, planting pollinating plants or letting a section of their garden grow wild. It is already happening, and with greater focus and publicity even more people will join in.
An important concept of Our Nature Recovery is that it is not dictated or ruled by any layer of government. While it is important that local councils support and encourage their communities, Our Nature Recovery t is driven and delivered by the people themselves. It is the small actions we all take at home that collectively build into something much larger.
​​
Our Nature Recovery provides a common 'badge' under which communities across the country can show their support for our natural environment.
​Whether as developers, farmers, businesses, organisations or as individuals, this is down to us.
As the initiative develops everyone will be invited to join in with activities, and to play a part in this vital task for the wellbeing of the natural world.
