  • Résumé

  • We met Kate Hanley down at Dovestones just east of Oldham on a very wet day in 2024. Kate works for the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) and manages a brilliant project on land above Dovestones which is owned by water company United Utilities but leased to the RSPB for nature recovery. Kates work here is really drilling down into how we restore very degraded peat bogs - essential for carbon storage, water management [keeping water back for both flood prevention and droughts] and for nature. Our upland peat bogs have been hammered by pollution, extraction and drainage. But Kate's work is truly inspirational even if it is turning a few heads - birds are flooding back, insects galore but also trees are seeding into her project and this challenges the peat / tree dogma. This is one site visit which is well worth the walk!
