The Fens East Peat Partnership (FEPP) with Natural England have arranged a series of monthly webinars on lowland peat restoration topics. The webinars will be combination of presentations and case studies, sharing information and experiences. These will include information gained through the FEPP NCPGS Discovery Project and the current NCPGS Restoration Project where 17 sites are undertaking peat restoration activity in the lowland Fens of Lincolnshire, Cambridgeshire and Norfolk.

The aim of the sessions is to encourage more discussion and questions to find ways to look after the remaining peat in the Fens that will allow food production and restoration to work together allowing the peat ecosystems to become sustainable and resilient to help us manage the impact of climate change.

The webinar topics include: 

Peatland restoration at RSPB Lakenheath - a case study

IUCN UK Peatland Programme

Raising the water table and the Environment Agency's role

Biodiversity Net Gain as a mechanism to fund nature recovery in the fens

Peatland restoration at National Trust’s Wicken Fen Nature Reserve
