Cornwall’s Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty are our National Park. Our protected landscapes, the Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the World Heritage Sites deserve the highest level of consideration; they are Cornwall’s most important assets.

Changes in the world’s climate will lead to changes in flora and fauna here in Cornwall; sea level rise will present challenges too. However, the Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty are not intended to be unchanging landscapes; they are managed landscapes that will become increasingly important for food and energy production, for the ecosystems goods and services they host. It is for these reasons that the economic and social benefits that these protected landscapes bring need to be fully appreciated and for the landscape’s importance to be integrated into all areas of planning, policy and development.

As Cornwall Council Cabinet Member with responsibility for the Areas of Outstanding Beauty I commend the Management Plan to you, not only is it an important document for the Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, it acts to provide guidance on best practice for the whole of Cornwall. It is my hope that, each and every one of us, will all act upon the Plan.
