The April edition of the National Trails UK newsletter is out now – and it’s full of fresh updates as we kick off the new financial year. Here’s a sneak peek of what’s inside:

NTUK’s new Business Plan: We’ll be launching our new 3-year Business Plan over the next few weeks – keep your eyes peeled.
We’re hiring: Our brilliant Impact Fundraiser, Laura Perratt, is off to pastures new. Know someone who could take on this exciting role? Please help us spread the word.
Funding for landscape-scale projects: A new report on funding opportunities for landscape-scale projects – including Coastal Wildbelt – is coming soon.
National Trails in LNRSs: Thanks to NTUK, National Trails and Coastal Wildbelt are being recognised in Local Nature Recovery Strategies across England.
One map to rule them all: For the first time, you can now explore all 20 National Trails in one place, thanks to our new interactive map on Esri’s Living Atlas.

You can read the newsletter on Canva here. Or click the button below to download the PDF.
