The impacts of a changing climate are increasingly being felt in the places around us. Our research shows that 69% of people care strongly about flooding and extreme weather.
People want to see practical action that helps prepare for the future. That means organisations preparing for future pressures, restoring damaged landscapes and working alongside communities to protect the places they value.

The scheme now operates from 17 locations, supported by a book-and-collect service.

Access looks different for everyone. For some, it`s about removing physical barriers that make taking part difficult. For others, it`s about feeling welcome, having the confidence to get involved and knowing that thereโs a place for you in the outdoors.
National Parks are for everyone. Across all 15 National Parks, programmes are helping people with a wide range of needs feel included, connected and part of their local communities โ from children with complex needs to people with limited mobility.

In North York Moors National Park a project that champions both the community and insects is thriving. GrubsUp! has already planted native hedgerows, restored grasslands, created ponds and improved roadside verges so insects can move more easily between isolated pockets of habitat.
Working with farmers, landowners and local volunteers, the project shows the possibilities for nature when a local community comes together.
