Vision Statement

Turning the tide to help nature and people thrive across the Lizard and beyond

This vision statement recognises that nature continues to become more impoverished and that the community has the ability to halt the decline and reverse the trend. In so doing, we will benefit by being part of a healthy complex ecosystem, our future way of living enriched by knowing and appreciating the natural world of which we are a part.  By increasing biodiversity and nature abundance, we will contribute significantly to carbon drawdown and so address global warming.

This is our vision – and we aim to get there by any means which stay true to our values and which are within our resources. We consider we play a part in nature recovery by representing the local community. 

Some are already committed to nature recovery, either by their own individual efforts or through belonging to the more established environmental groups. We want to be all-inclusive and reach out to everyone. 

We also want to work with all other groups with similar or overlapping aims by promoting what they do, joining in when we can, inviting them to join us and looking for opportunities to work together, perhaps sharing grant applications.

We think it’s essential to work together if we are to achieve the best possible results, and are delighted to be part of the Linking the Lizard partnership.
