Funding for farmers or landowners support and improve Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONBs), National Parks and the Broads.

You could get up to 100% of the costs of a project if you will not make a commercial gain from it.

Projects funded include those that:

  • Store carbon
  • Reduce flood risk
  • Create and connect habitats
  • Improve management of existing habitats
  • Enhance or reinforce the quality and character of the landscape

If your project is the same as a Countryside Stewardship (CS) activity, you will be paid the same as the CS rate.

If your project is not the same as a CS activity, the protected landscape team will offer funding on the estimated costs.
