Local Action Plans
Over the past 7 years Local Biodiversity Action Plans (LBAPs) have been created by local Biodiversity Partnerships. These documents are sets of action plans for individual species and habitats and identify a lead partner who will work on the plan. The development and the delivery of these plans has varied according to local partnerships and resources. Some projects have been funded and are delivering benefits to the target species or habitat.
For details of how these plans link to the national plan, see UKBAP for further details.
There are 5 local Biodiversity Partnerships across the North West delivering these LBAPs. Further details of each and contacts are provided below.
