It's now clear that the gov't are NOT proposing to repeal the Protected Landscapes duty 🙌 A huge thank you to the more than 200 charities, businesses & organisations who joined us in writing to Keir Starmer 💚 Now to focus on improving our Protected Landscapes... www.cnp.org.uk/news/plans-t...

The Protected Landscapes Duty was introduced to force the water industry to act for National Parks It's very early days but already has forced Ofwat to recogonise the Duty - & that National Parks exist Gov't must prioritise National Parks in water reforms observer.co.uk/news/columni...

Over 200 charities, businesses & organisations have signed our open letter to Keir Starmer asking him not to weaken the laws protecting National Parks and Landscapes. We're so thankful to everyone who added their name 💪 This letter represents millions of people and shows that #NationalParksMatter

Plans to weaken protections for national parks will have ‘disastrous consequences’, say environmentalists Pleased to have signed @campaign4parks.bsky.social's letter urging Ministers to drop plans to remove the Protected Landscapes Duty on public bodies 1/ www.theguardian.com/environment/...

The British public love National Parks & Landscapes. Weakening the law that protects them would be devastating for nature, visitors & the businesses they support. These places need more support from Gov't to make them wilder & more accessible to everyone 👇 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

We can’t afford to weaken National Park protections ⚠️ But there are rumours that some in Westminster want to remove the Protected Landscapes duty - the only real power to secure action for nature We can't let 30 years of campaigning go down the drain www.cnp.org.uk/about/our-wo...

"They better look after the National Parks & the Protected Landscapes because it's going to be precious, not just for us but, 150, 200 years time people will regret it if those things start getting traded off" @rory-stewart.bsky.social puts it best 👇 (27:06) www.globalplayer.com/podcasts/epi...

Is Labour about to put its historic link with National Parks at risk? National Parks are world-famous as Britain’s most special & iconic landscapes. Why on earth would any Gov't want to make it easier to pollute the Lake District or bulldoze the New Forest? greenallianceblog.org.uk/2025/09/30/i...

We fully support Wales Environment Link’s manifesto includes 👏the clean-up of our waterways and 👏a commitment from all parties to the delivery a new National Park in North-East Wales Read the full manifesto 👇

There is overwhelming evidence that water companies are failing waterways in National Parks The recent change in law is vital in holding water companies accountable, but with speculation that Gov't is minded to repeal this duty, things may get worse not better... www.theguardian.com/business/202...

The @southdownsnp.bsky.social recently published their “Water in the Park” study💧 It found that 90% of rivers & lakes are not in good ecological condition📉 South Downs NPA Chief Exec @sionmcgeever.bsky.social calls for a united response to the river crisis👇 www.cnp.org.uk/blog/water-i...

7 things we learnt from the High Court about National Parks 👀 With the Protected Landscapes now duty under threat👎 we reviewed what the precedent-setting High Court cases mean for National Parks law, following our year of legal action ⚖️ www.cnp.org.uk/blog/7-thing...

If rumours are true the decision to repeal the Protected Landscapes duty would be devastating. We campaigned for this for over 30 years. The duty was hard won, to backtrack now would be betraying our National Parks & Landscapes. We will not let this happen. www.thetimes.com/uk/history/a...
