Our new 2025 – 2030 management plan has now been adopted (July 2025). We are busy updating all related documents, such as the delivery plan. Please bear with us whilst we create these new documents.
Management Plans for National Landscapes (National Landscapes) are required by law (CROW Act 2000) and must be produced and reviewed every five years. The East Devon NL Partnership undertakes this duty for the East Devon NL on behalf of Devon County and East Devon District Councils. From 2019 our Management Plan’s have been renamed as the ‘Partnership Plan’ in recognition of the way it is delivered – in partnership with others.

KEY DOCUMENTS
The Partnership Plan is our five-year management strategy. It identifies key issues facing the area, sets out long term objectives for its future and highlights the actions needed to conserve our landscape.
The Delivery Plan is a strategic framework document outlining responsibilities and how partner organisations will work together to achieve the objectives of the Partnership.
Delivery Plan (in development)
Printed copies of the Plan are sent to all libraries in and around the National Landscape and all Parish Councils in the area as well as key partners and the Secretary of State/Defra.
