Through the actions of a committed, skilled and diverse network of partners, we are delivering the largest greenspace initiative of its kind in Europe. Their valuable support and exemplar approach to working in partnership is delivering positive changes and enhancements to central Scotland’s landscape at scale. This year saw the EcoCo LIFE, Clyde and Avon Valley Landscape Partnership and Inner Forth Landscape Initiative programmes draw to a close. Their achievements are impressive and we have highlighted these in this review. It has been very encouraging to see action continue beyond the original scope of the initiatives as they transition into new ventures, carrying forward the legacies of the projects. An Initiative of National Importance The CSGN is transforming places for the better, actively supporting the Scottish Government’s Programme for Government. It is a real opportunity through policy, investment and shared action to create a legacy for the future, as well as seeing real change in our lifetime. It is much more than a ‘green’ initiative, the CSGN is helping to improve the social, economic, physical, cultural and environmental wellbeing. By targeting and prioritising areas where access to quality greenspace is limited, the CSGN is tackling inequality, making central Scotland a fairer, healthier and happier place to live. The CSGN makes central Scotland a more attractive place to do business in, promoting a stronger, sustainable economy. It also has the ability to strengthen communities, and seeks to engage them with Scotland’s natural environment and the many benefits it brings. All while contributing significantly to Scotland’s response to the climate emergency, helping to meet the climate change challenges we face. 1 — 2018 CSGN Forum, Roseanna Cunningham MSP Cabinet Secretary for Environment, Climate Change and Land Reform 1 Scottish Government 3 Commitment The CSGN is the largest environmental The CSGN featured in both the 2017/18 and Annual Review 2018/19 2018/19 Programmes for Government.

  • Fernbrae Meadows
    Fernbrae Meadows Proposed Local Nature Reserve Management Statement Contents Introduction General information Habitats, flora and fauna Landscape Cultural information Recreation and access Local community Conclusion Contacts Appendix 1: Objectives and actions Appendix 2: Maps Introduction Local Nature Reserves (LNRs) are valuable places as they combine protection of the natural heritage with opportunities for people to enjoy, learn about and experience nature close to their homes. LNRs are: • Statutory designations made under the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949. • Special places which are rich in wildlife. • Generally, readily accessible and suitable for people to visit and enjoy. In declaring these sites, South Lanarkshire Council (SLC) aims to: • Protect them from unsuitable developments. • Manage and enhance the habitats to help biodiversity flourish. • Improve public access. • Help people understand and become more aware of the importance of the LNR. • Encourage community participation and volunteering. SLC have identified fifteen new sites (and an extension to the existing LNR at Langlands Moss) to become designated as LNRs. These encompass a broad spectrum of habitats including ancient broadleaved woodland, open water, wetlands and grasslands. The site management statements are written in conjunction with the South Lanarkshire Biodiversity Strategy (2018-2022), SLC Sustainable Development and Climate Change Strategy (2017-22), SLC Local Development Plan (2013) and SLC Core Path Plan (2012). Vision statement Across South Lanarkshire, Local Nature Reserves are a resource for local communities that balance excellent recreational and educational opportunities with valuable habitats for wildlife that are rich in biodiversity. General information Location and site boundaries: Fernbrae Meadows is located on the far western edge of South Lanarkshire, next to the communities of Fernhill to the north and Cathkin to the east.
