Despite its status as a National Park, the Peak District is one of the most nature-depleted landscapes in the entire UK. To reverse this, the Derbyshire Wildlife Trust are working with farmers to look at the issues they are facing and figure out how to both improve biodiversity and create more sustainable farm systems at the same time, a crucial step in beginning to rewild our isles and tackle the planetary emergency. Join Josh Davis as we travel to Derbyshire to find out more about the work being done and the possible solutions that support our farmers and our planet. We’ve been visiting a range of projects across Derbyshire to see how nature restoration and rewilding can work in practice and within communities. The Derbyshire Wildlife Trust is working with a range of partners across the county to champion and improve the regions biodiversity. Working from the peaks to the streets, the charity is working to restore fragmented and degraded habitats, help those wanting to make a difference and connect people with the nature on their doorstep.
