What we do

A healthy natural environment underpins our society, economy and wellbeing. Nature recovery is essential to tackling the climate and ecological emergencies, improving public health, strengthening resilience and supporting a more inclusive, productive economy. Achieving this requires organisations across the region to work together around a shared vision and coordinated action.

Our 2021-30 strategy focuses on developing investable, landscape-scale programmes that support the delivery of the West of England Local Nature Recovery Strategy. It features enabling priorities around finance, policy, communications, evidence, and governance.

Our Business Plan sets out how the partnership will deliver our strategy in 2026 and the foundations we are building towards 2030. It is structured around our impact, enabling priorities, and ways of working set out in our strategy. It describes how, over the next 5 years, WENP will build the capacity, relationships, evidence, projects, and investment needed to accelerate nature recovery at scale, and make our region a trailblazer in nature-positive economic growth.
