Landscapes

We believe that landscape is more than just ‘the view’. It’s the ever-changing relationship between people, place and nature.

The landscapes we know and love – from mountains, uplands, moors and the seascapes of our stunning coastline to rolling countryside and green parkland in urban and rural areas – all have their own distinctive character and sense of place.

We want as many people as possible to access these landscapes, preferably within walking distance or short travelling time , without the need for a car. Sustainable, good public transport links to and between villages, towns and the countryside is key to moving people away from relying on cars but walking and cycling , we believe , are the best way for getting out into the country.
