The Dedham Vale AONB and Stour Valley Management Plan is a statutory document that will inform decision making in the nationally designated landscape for the next five years.

The AONB really needs your comment to ensure that the area is conserved and enhanced for the next five years. The draft Management Plan is available to download (PDF).

The consultation process is via a 15-minute online survey, or by emailing your comments on the draft document to [email protected].

The draft plan will be out for consultation until midday on 5th April 2021.
