Camden
The Camden Biodiversity Partnership is developing its second action plan. The first plan was a 5 year strategy for prioritised habitats and species for the Borough from 2002. The Partnership consisted of over 21 local groups and landowners including Camden Council, the City of London, the Royal Parks, British Waterways, Camley Street Natural Park, Camden Nature Reserves Forum, local naturalists and recorders and other local groups.
