The published Local Nature Recovery Strategy includes:

- A ‘Non-technical guide’ document – a shorter document that summarises the Local Nature Recovery Strategy, to help you find the information you need, more quickly
- The Local Habitat Map – Interactive mapping showing the locations in which key Measures (actions, particularly for habitat creation, management and enhancement) should be focused to have the greatest benefits for nature. The mapping also shows areas that are currently of particular importance for nature and biodiversity, and the areas that could become important in the future.
- Appendices [add link when decided on what doing with RESOURCES section]– which provide detailed information on how the strategy was developed, including information about the consultation and engagement work undertaken throughout the development of the strategy.
