East Grinstead & Uckfield

East Grinstead & Uckfield

With a sprawling river network, ancient woodland and internationally important heathland, East Grinstead & Uckfield constituency has some fabulous places for wildlife. You can download the East Grinstead and Uckfield Constituency Map to look more closely.

We want the next government to commit to our top 5 priorities for action on nature. Here are some local examples of the importance of these priorities in your constituency.

Enable Healthy Communities

Improving access to natural, wildlife-rich places where we live, learn and work will transform people’s lives, improving health, happiness, and hope across communities. The Gatwick Greenspace Partnership (GGP) is a partnership project celebrating its 30th year, funded by seven local authorities and Gatwick Airport. It works to benefit people and wildlife in an area over some 200 square kilometres covering Dorking, Horley, Crawley, Charlwood, Horsham and Gatwick Airport. The aim of GGP is to inform, educate and involve a diverse range of people from the local communities in our beautiful, natural surroundings. GGP want to see the local landscape more interconnected for wildlife and so successfully work with local land owners, including the Forestry Commission, the Wildlife Trusts and the Woodland Trust, plus local authorities and Gatwick Airport to support them in managing their land more sustainably and in partnership with others. Access to a clean and healthy environment is a basic human right that should be guaranteed through law.

Bring Back our Lost Wildlife

The headwaters of the River Ouse sprawl across this constituency creating interesting opportunities to bring back iconic species such as Beavers, nature’s finest ‘wetland engineers’. Returning beavers to the wild can be a game changer for restoring lost wetlands and benefitting all kinds of wildlife. Moreover, beavers can help to reduce the risk of wildfires and flooding which threaten people’s homes.

Fund wildlife-friendly farming

Much of East Grinstead and Uckfield constituency is designated as the High Weald National Landscape. This is a medieval landscape of wooded, rolling hills studded with small, irregular-shaped fields and scattered farmsteads. Farming is fundamental to this area, but the destruction of nature and the impacts of climate change are the biggest threats to food security in the UK. We need a government that supports farmers to shift towards regenerative, nature-friendly methods. Many farmers and land managers have gone to great lengths to support wildlife but without being adequately rewarded. The budget for environmental farming has already fallen by a third since 2010. Not investing properly means everyone loses.
