Objectives

The Great Ouse Valley and its environs in Cambridgeshire is a landscape worthy of Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) status to conserve, enhance and through local people give them the opportunity to see and care for this distinct place.

The Great Ouse Valley is a valuable community resource in one of the UK’s areas of fastest expanding population and infrastructure. People need green spaces and fresh air to thrive.

The wonderful countryside of the Great Ouse Valley has protected landscapes and nature reserves, a recognised rich bio-diversity, stunning historic buildings, an immense social history dating back to pre-historic times.  It’s a landscape for life – and as such, it is vital we protect it now, and for future generations.
We are here to fulfil the urgent need to protect, promote and enhance our special landscape and heritage of the Great Ouse Valley in Cambridgeshire.

Activities

Through and with our Partner Members our aim is to oversee the managment of the area holistically.  This will help help improve wildlife diversity, prevent damaging land use cahnges and will enable greater recognition of the beauty and value of the landscape which benefits the whole community - in economic terms as well as recreation, amenity, education and general well being.
