Shropshire Biodiversity Partnership

The Shropshire Biodiversity Action Plan identifies what needs to be done for the threatened species and habitats of Shropshire, who will lead the action for each, and the time-scale for the work.

The Shropshire Biodiversity Partnership consists of the Steering Group who meet every 3 months and the Wider Partnership who meet once a year at an annual conference.

The Shropshire Biodiversity Partnership (SBP) is a partnership of local and regional organisations including the Shropshire Council, Shropshire Wildlife Trust, RSPB, Butterfly Conservation, Natural England, Forestry Commission, Environment Agency, and local volunteer species recording groups etc. New partners are actively encouraged to join.
