Landscape Partnership Projects
National Lottery Heritage Fund
The Tame Valley Wetlands Landscape Partnership Scheme worked across 20 sites between Coleshill and Tamworth. The Board of the Partnership, representing ten organisations and the local community, took on the role of forming a management board to oversee and steer the Scheme.
The vision of the Partnership was “to create a wetland landscape, rich in wildlife and accessible to all.”
The Partnership agreed four Aims, centered on:
• Improving built and natural heritage, including habitat improvements,
• Getting people interested and engaged in Tame Valley Wetlands,
• Improving access to and interpretation of the area and
• Providing opportunities for formal and informal learning to develop the relevant skills of both local people and the employees of partner organisations
In total, 40 projects focussed on nature, heritage, engagement and training were identified and delivered by the Tame Valley Wetlands Landscape Partnership, to work towards achieving the Partnership Vision.
