New Bolsover Nature Recovery Champion
Bee
We have further shown our commitment to helping the environment by appointing a new Bolsover Local Nature Recovery Champion to help achieve our four key environmental pledges.
Cabinet member for environment, Councillor Anne Clarke was appointed at a meeting of the Executive committee on 29 January 2024.
In February 2023 the council launched the Bolsover Nature Recovery Action Plan which produced the following pledges for action:
* Increase the financial support for local nature recovery by 50%
* Manage land in a way that enchances biodiversity
* Establish a Voluntary Sector Forum to bring together the district's community groups that are active in local nature recovery and environmental matters
* Establish a land bank record and seek to expand this through Dragonfly Development Ltd exploring opportunities to acquire land to help connect and extend the local nature networks
The Bolsover Local Nature Recovery Champion (BLNRC) will work alongside the planning policy team as well as sitting on a newly formed LNR task and finish group.
