The main aim of the grant scheme is to enhance the habitat network surrounding Portsmouth Water land to create Biological corridors. The fund will cover:

  • Biodiversity and habitat improvements e.g. re coppicing woodland, wetland creation.

  • Invasive non-native species control e.g. Himalayan Balsam control to reduce bank erosion.

  • Species and habitat survey projects e.g. invertebrate survey of grassland.

  • Equipment to carry out knowledge enhancement.
