Give us your thoughts on nature and biodiversity

Residents are being asked for their views on South Kesteven District Council’s approach to wildlife habitat, nature and biodiversity in a four-week consultation which opens today (4 June 2025).

The consultation illustrates SKDC’s commitment to setting aside land for nature and is an opportunity to find out what support other organisations would like to help promote biodiversity.

The council wants to hear from residents, landowners, organisations and other stakeholders to help it refine and develop its future direction and actions.

Cllr Rhys Baker, who is Cabinet member for Environment and Waste, said:

“I would encourage anyone who has an interest in wildlife and their habitats to take part in this consultation on biodiversity and rewilding.

“We would like to know what you think of our existing rewilding sites and if there are any other areas of council owned land you think might be suitable for a biodiversity scheme. We are also keen to establish how best we can support other organisations and community and voluntary groups to set aside areas of their own land for the benefit of nature.

“Your feedback will help us measure public support for existing council locations and will also inform us as to how we can best support other organisations to promote biodiversity.  

“Please use this opportunity to have your say.” 

The consultation runs until 30th June.
