Revitalising Redesdale

Revitalising Redesdale was a £2.8 million Landscape Partnership Scheme, funded by The National Lottery Heritage Fund, which aimed to celebrate, conserve and enhance Redesdale’s rich cultural heritage, landscape and wildlife.

Thanks to money raised by National Lottery players, the Partnership delivered a five-year programme that restored historic monuments, conserved and enhanced wildlife habitats and provided opportunities for local people to get involved in archaeological and practical conservation projects. Visit the Revitalising Redesdale website to find out more about all of the projects and how you can still get involved.

Northumberland Wildlife Trust was a member of the core delivery partnership for Revitalising Redesdale, along with Natural England and Northumberland National Park Authority. The full partnership was made up of 17 organisations, see the full list here.
