We are very pleased to announce that the South Pennines Watershed Landscape has won a £1.9 million grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund to help bring the story of the Watershed Landscape to life.

The project, funded under the HLF’s Landscape Partnership Scheme (LPS), will support landscape restoration, access and heritage projects in the area.

In 2007/2008 Resources for Change worked with Pennine Prospects to develop an Audience Development and Access Plan covered the South Pennines area which formed part of an successful HLF application. Working with stakeholders and partners R4C helped to identify audiences and their needs, assess barriers and produce action and access plans. 

Pennine Prospects have now appointed an interpretation officer for the Watershed Landscape, and will be working towards putting some of our recommendations into practice.
