There is an LNP in every area across Wales, each uniquely placed to deliver effective action at the local level and contribute to the national nature recovery agenda. Find your Local Nature Partnership here.
Each LNP has a coordinator who is hosted by the Local Authority or National Park Authority in their area. They are each responsible for developing and delivering activities, as well as monitoring and performance.
