Rivers Nature North
Rivers Nature North is working with partners, investors and delivery organisations to increase the scale and pace of projects which deliver healthier river catchments for people and wildlife in the North of England. These projects will deliver a range of ecosystem services which investors are looking for to help them deliver their Environmental, Social and Governance requirements (ESG), offset carbon and Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG), reduce their risk of flooding and to protect the natural resources they rely upon such as water quality and supply. Rivers Nature North is working with locally based delivery partners to develop a pipeline of river catchment restoration projects.
Examples of some of these projects are outlined in the Prospectus By working across the North with a range of environmental organisations, Rivers Nature North can offer flexible programmes of river catchment restoration projects which meet the individual needs of large scale investors.
This approach enables investors to reach locally based organisations who have the skills and knowledge to ensure their projects are well designed, long term and strategic
