From wetland creation to river restoration, our nature-based programmes rebuild natural assets and reinstate the ecological processes that foster a healthy environment for people and wildlife.
By enhancing habitats, we restore biodiversity and the ecosystem services of water purification, flood and drought protection and carbon sequestration.

Large-scale weir removal
On behalf of the EA we successfully opened 340 miles of catchment in the largest project of its kind – in the country – by removing a 70 meter wide, 900 year old medieval weir. Removing the weir significantly improved fish migration, spawning grounds and habitat. Fallen water levels have also allowed natural ecological processes to recommence.
