We are a leading forum to ensure that the natural environment throughout England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland supports wellbeing and prosperity for everyone.

Our vision is to work towards a time when the value of the natural environment for wellbeing and prosperity is harnessed to its full potential. We exist to provide an effective way of sharing know-how, innovation and ideas across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. We share insights from other parts of the world too.

The Network is for everyone, from park rangers to public health specialists and from land valuers to landscape architects. By supporting professionals and volunteers, we work for the benefit of people in all of parts of society. Through our work, our members learn how to manage the environment locally as an asset for all of society. We achieve learning outcomes for our members, so they can do their jobs better. We achieve impact through our members as they initiate new projects and memberships, create new evidence to inform decisions, and interact with local communities and clients.
