But you may not have realised that our graduate placement, Jayne Ashe, has made a head start and has been busy supporting and co-ordinating a new 'Pendle Hill Volunteers Group' over the last year. The volunteers have been able to carry out small-scale tasks to improve the local environment of the hill, including woodland management, surveying, removal of invasives and hedgelaying amongst other things. We see this group growing and developing as the Pendle Hill LP begins its delivery phase next year. Ribble Rivers Trust have been going from strength to strength recently, with new initiatives and projects sprouting up across the AONB, including the ambitious and exciting 'Ribble Life Together' catchment- wide initiative and the River Loud Farmer Facilitation Group. What the Trust also does fantastically is in harnessing the energies and enthusiasm of its volunteers. During the year, they have been involved in planting over 9,000 trees within the catchment – no mean feat! Other notable voluntary efforts during the year include the Lawkland, Eldroth, Wharfe, Feizor and Austwick (LEWFA) Hyperfast Broadband connecting up local communities, and also the 'Promoted Routes' volunteers from Wyre Countryside Service and the AONB Unit, who are out there in all weathers monitoring and maintaining public rights of way in the area. Local businesses have been doing their bit for the area too. Under the auspices of Champion Bowland (the charitable company which aims to promote the conservation and enhancement of the AONB landscape), Bowland Clothing Company Ltd. has launched a range of 'Forest of Bowland' merchandise, with 60% of any profits going to Champion Bowland. Local tourism businesses have also been extremely generous donating prizes for the 'badge-box' prize draw and items for a Champion Bowland charity auction. These kinds of donation help to raise funds to View from the Chair: offer small grants to support local community groups to conserve and County Councillor Albert Atkinson, enhance the AONB landscape.

This last year has seen some fantastic activities and initiatives being delivered - and supported - by volunteers and local businesses.

(ENWL) has continued to work with the Forest of Bowland AONB Unit to identify visually intrusive sections of overhead lines for undergrounding. The AONB has an allocation of c. £1.8m for the current price review period (RIIO-ED1) from 2015 to 2023. Work in 2016/17 has focused on planning and preparations for undergrounding schemes identified and agreed with ENWL in 2015. Three smaller schemes were completed in the Lune valley at Priory Farm, near Hornby and Farleton during the year. Schemes over Marl Hill Moor between Cow Ark and Newton and at Wolfen Hall, near Chipping are in construction and anticipated to complete next year.

Given the prominence of hedges and dry stone walls within the Bowland landscape, traditional boundaries have been one of the AONB's key areas of focus for some time. Not only do these types of boundary provide valuable wildlife habitat and stock shelter, they also help to tell the story of human settlement in the area over centuries. Although built to last, inevitably walls start to tumble and hedges become gappy or overgrown – at which point some skilled repair work is needed. Through our 2016/17 Traditional Boundaries training programme we delivered 16 hedge laying sessions between 4th December and 9th March, working with trainees old and new and laying hundreds of meters of hedge. Expert guidance was provided by trainers Geoff Whitley, Joe Craig and Andy Kirkwood, whilst venues included Sykes Farm (Scorton), Higher Gills Farm (Rimington), Laneside Farm (West Bradford) and Grunsagill (Tosside). Volunteers from the Pendle Hill Landscape Partnership, Wyre Countryside Volunteers and members of the public took part in the training sessions. Once again the annual Forest of Bowland Hedgelaying Competition was held in March at Laneside Farm. Part of the Lancashire and Westmorland Hedge Laying Association's Grand Prix calendar, the event is organised by Lancashire County Council, Ribble Valley Borough Council and the AONB. People participate in the training courses for many different reasons and if even a small number are enthused enough to go on and learn more, then these traditional countryside skills have the chance to remain alive and prosper – vital if Bowland's landscape is to be cared for into the future.
