The natural networks partnership
The natural networks partnership is a
group of organisations (including Natural England, PECT, The
Wildlife Trust and Peterborough City Council) that work to
protect and enhance the green spaces of Peterborough as the city
grows.
The partnership represents not only a
network of local organisations working together towards a shared
vision, but also the network of high quality, well maintained open
spaces, wildlife corridors, woodlands and lakes that we are
striving to achieve.
What we do
Natural networks have been awarded money through the
Housing Growth Fund to implement projects that positively benefit
both the people and wildlife of the city, identified within the
Green Grid Strategy document. These have included significant
resurfacing of parts of the Green Wheel cycle route and creation of
adjacent wildlife areas, land purchase to the west of Peterborough
to help establish new accessible nature reserves, and the South
Peterborough Green Parks Project which aims to provide a large area
of interconnected greenspaces with differing uses.
You can find out lots more information about the partnership,
the projects we have completed and those we are currently working
on by visiting natural
networks. You can also use our new interactive map of
Peterborough to find out about things to see and do across the city
as well as forthcoming events and activities.
