New Client: Eden Rivers Trust
New Client: Eden Rivers Trust
The Evaluator is delighted to be working on a new project with the Eden Rivers Trust. Using the tagline “breaking barriers, building bridges”, this project is dedicated to reaching new communities and places access at the heart of all it has planned. It’s just the sort of work we love to do.
Eden Rivers Trust Explain:
“Access to Eden: breaking barriers, building bridges is a partnership project, led by Eden Rivers Trust that will remove the barriers that prevent people and wildlife from accessing the natural heritage of East Cumbria and ‘build the bridges’ needed so that they enjoy and thrive in, on and beside Eden’s rivers.
The project is split into two broad areas:
Greener spaces on your doorstep
This is about making improvements to the river environment at eight sites that are ‘on the doorstep’ of urban areas along the length of the river Eden – creating sustainable, healthy and thriving natural spaces. Many of these will be community-led/inspired practical conservation projects that will make the sites in Carlisle, Lower Eden, Penrith and Source of the Eden (Kirkby Stephen) better places for people and wildlife.An Eden for everyone
This is a programme of activities, often connected to the doorstep sites above but also covering the whole of the Eden catchment area, that will create opportunities for people to enjoy Eden’s rivers and nature. This will include improvements to selected walks and trails, coupled with better information plus opportunities including volunteering, training and events for all ages and abilities to get closer to nature, so that more people can explore, enjoy and care for Eden’s rivers.Core to our project is the desire to create an organic community conservation network for the Eden. We see this operating across organisational boundaries where ideas, knowledge, and opportunities flow from one site to the next, across the Eden, and take our beneficiaries with them, ensuring they have the maximum opportunity to experience the natural heritage of the Eden on their own terms.”
