Priority outcomes & measures

This section describes five priority outcomes which if reached will help us achieve our goal, and some suggested practical actions that might be taken to achieve them.

AE1 Accessibility 

People of all backgrounds and abilities are able to discover, reach and responsibly explore the North Pennines.

AE2 Providing a welcome 

There is a strong culture and practice, amongst people who live and work in the North Pennines, of helping everyone feel at home here.

AE3 Stories and information 

Stories and information about nature, landscape, geodiversity and heritage of the North Pennines are high quality, widely available, and accessible and engaging to a variety of audiences.

AE4 Young people

Young people, in particular, have access to high quality experiences which immerse them in the nature and cultural heritage of the North Pennines.

AE5 Building relationships

There are active and resilient relationships between communities, groups and individuals who live and/or work inside the North Pennines, and those outside of the North Pennines.

The list of suggested actions is not meant to be comprehensive but to provide examples of the kinds of work which would support these outcomes. Some might be best delivered by an organisation such as the National Landscape team and others by a variety of groups, organisations and individuals, from inside and/or outside the National Landscape. Case studies of actions which have already contributed to each priority outcome are given.
