Landscape Recovery is one of three Environmental Land Management (ELM) schemes, funded by DEFRA, alongside Sustainable Farming Incentive and Countryside Stewardship.
All 3 schemes will support farmers and the community to deliver similar things – clean and plentiful water, thriving plants and wildlife, climate change adaptation and mitigation, and healthy soils – but each will do so in different ways.
Landscape Recovery offers farmers, land managers and wider community the opportunity to co- design a bespoke agreement for environmental and climate management across landscape scale projects.
Cornwall Wildlife Trust are coordinating the Penwith Landscape Recovery project, working with over 50 landowners and the wider community in your local area to co-design the scheme. The development of this scheme will take 2 years, after which we hope to move to an implementation phase over the next 20 years and beyond.
During October & November 2024, they will be holding ‘Cake & Cooperation’ community events in Parish halls across Penwith. There will be talks, activities and opportunities for all the community to make suggestions on the long-term management of Penwith Landscape.
Two Sancreed Parish ‘Cake & Cooperation’ events will be held:
Sancreed Village Hall, daytime Saturday 26th October 12.30-2.30pm
Sancreed Village Hall, evening Saturday 26th October 6.30-8.30pm
