Hilary McGrady, Director-General of the National Trust said: “As we welcome this new government into power, we want to see it prioritise four key areas to tackle some of the most significant issues this country is facing.

“Firstly, the UK remains one of the most nature depleted countries on earth. By addressing, prioritising and accelerating action to reverse the nature crisis, the government can also address issues like river pollution, food security, and climate change.

“This has to involve more support to farmers so they play a full part in helping nature and restoring the health of our rivers; ensuring 30% of our land and seas are well managed and protected for nature by 2030; and investing in large scale, nature-based solutions like peatland recovery, which will also help tackle climate change.
