How we work.

We work collaboratively to restore peatlands whilst protecting, enhancing and championing upland historic environments, wildife, water quality, and carbon storage.

Peatland restoration is important for all of our futures.

As a collective we work closely with landowners, land managers, farmers and commoners who interact with peatlands daily to develop restoration proposals. Innovation, experimentation and collaboration are key in our approach, as together we are able to determine the best approaches to blocking man-made and eroded drainage features, and ensuring we use methods and materials most suitable to the location, access, peat quality, historic features, farming and wildlife.

Methods to raise the water table, focussed on areas that are drained and degraded, help to prevent further degradation and promotes active peat build up through Sphagnum moss recolonisation. Rewetting takes place by blocking the man-made and eroded drainage features, using a range of approaches and materials most suitable to the location, access, peat quality, historic features, farming and wildlife.
