The Vision

The Stepping Stones Partnership will

" create a multifunctional, biodiverse and resilient network of countryside and urban green infrastructure that supports a vibrant and competitive economy so that everyone living in and visiting the area may enjoy and participate in a high quality of life".

The Aims

  1. Working in partnership, there will be opportunities for community action and participation in green infrastructure issues;
  2. Everyone will enjoy well planned, managed and biodiverse landscapes that are resilient to the effects of climate change;
  3. Everyone will be able to participate in vibrant and competitive rural and urban economies;
  4. Everyone will have opportunities to participate in a healthier lifestyle.
How will the partnership do this?
The partnership will achieve these aims through awareness raising activities, targetted funding of environmental improvement schemes on community and privately owned land, an advisory service, rural skills training, raising the profile of green infrastructure within the planning system and other important groups.
