‘Conserving Coniston & Crake’
This National Lottery Heritage Fund project has now finished. It aimed to help protect, monitor and restore the freshwater environment of Coniston Water, the River Crake and the wider catchment area, through a programme of conservation, community engagement and education.
The project ran from June 2017 to March 2021, and left an ongoing legacy beyond this time period. Initiated by the Coniston and Crake Catchment Partnership, the project was managed by South Cumbria Rivers Trust and supported by the National Trust and The Lake District National Park Authority.
