Ribble Valley Borough Council is expending its re-wilding programme
The Ribble Valley's drive to ‘re-wild’ open land in its main market town has moved one step closer to its main historic monument.
Rewilding is the practice of reinstating natural habitats and restoring biodiversity, including where appropriate missing species. It improves biodiversity, reconnects people with nature, sustains communities and tackles the climate change and extinction emergencies. It is enthusiastically supported by top environmentalists, including Sir David Attenborough, who recently called on the global population to ‘rewild the world’ to restore the planet’s stability. Ricky Newmark, chairman of Ribble Valley Council’s community services committee said: “There is a lot of focus on looking after the planet and tackling climate change at the moment and one way of doing this is by rewilding.
“Our rewilding sites feature cut paths and are situated next or close to hard paths, so that all residents and visitors, including wheelchair and pushchair-users, can enjoy nature and see for themselves over the coming months and years what becomes established. This scheme is enabling us to protect and enhance the environmental quality of our area, one of the council’s key priorities, and we will be rewilding further sites in the future.
