Loving our Landscape!

Heritage Lottery Fund has earmarked £17m to help communities look after their landscapes - including the Staffordshire Moorlands landscape embracing the Caldon and Uttoxeter Canals.

On 20 May 2010 the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) announced 10 earmarked first-round passes totalling £17m made through its Landscape Partnership (LP) programme. The programme helps conserve areas of distinctive landscape character and supports schemes that provide long-term social, economic and environmental benefits for rural areas.
