Public Consultation Open: February 21 – April 18, 2025

East Devon National Landscape is inviting residents, businesses, and visitors to share their views on the East Devon National Landscape Partnership’s 2025–2030 Draft Management Plan. This plan will help shape the future of nature conservation, climate resilience, public access, and heritage protection across East Devon.
