Tees-Swale: Naturally Connected

Tees-Swale: Naturally Connected is a unique collaboration between the North Pennines National Landscape and the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority, and those who manage the land.  The £8.5million programme is largely funded by The National Lottery Heritage Fund and working across an area of 845 km² of the largest semi-natural habitats in England.

Tees-Swale: Naturally Connected is enhancing and restoring unique hay meadows and grasslands, sensitively creating and restoring woodland and hedging, improving the quality of watercourses and restoring peat. All part of the programme to deliver public benefits, including tackling biodiversity loss, climate change mitigation and, most crucially, connecting precious habitats across these uplands.
