About this Webinar
The UK’s National Parks, landscapes such as the Cairngorms, Lake District and Dartmoor, that cover 10% of Great Britain, are a vital nature resource. But nature is struggling in them, and action needs to be taken to restore peatland, plant more woodland, improve water quality and increase biodiversity. In 2021, the National Parks launched a collaboration with Palladium called Revere. Revere scales nature-based solutions to restore landscapes across the UK’s National Parks and beyond to tackle the climate emergency and biodiversity crisis. This webinar will share Revere’s key learnings and will highlight why innovative partnerships between those restoring nature and the private sector are so crucial.
