Weaving nature through towns and cities

Join us to explore how natural habitats can be woven through built up urban centres, supporting nature recovery at scale and making for better places to live.

Panellists will share how they have successfully delivered urban habitat connectivity, from new housing developments, to neighbourhood and landscape-scale projects. Hear about what they’ve learned, and the benefits of creating better connected urban areas for biodiversity, people and place.

This event is ideal for those working across planning, green infrastructure, ecology, nature recovery, strategic development, health and inclusion or community engagement, and related fields.

Speakers:

• Really Wild Lockleaze: Alex Dommett, Eric Swithinbank and Eleanor Fairbraida
• Medlock Valley: Lucy Stowell-Smith and Louisa Smith
• New Towns: John Dixon.
