AONB BOUNDARY VARIATION PROJECT
In case you are not aware the consultation by Natural England on the extension of the Surrey Hills Boundary opened Last week. This consultation is a significant step towards achieving the extension.
BE PART OF THE JOURNEY
“Whether you are a resident or a visitor to the Surrey Hills, you will know just what an incredible landscape this is.
By extending the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty we will be protecting it by law for the future, and it could unlock additional resources to help the Surrey Hills thrive, in a way that is good for nature and for people.
This is – literally – a once in a lifetime opportunity to tell the government how important this area is for all of us, and to ensure as much of it as possible is protected for future generations.
I would encourage anyone who cares about this precious natural environment to get involved in the consultation and make their voice count.”
– Kathy Atkinson, Chair of the Surrey Hills Board
