Sustainable development in
and around Northumberland National Park is about promoting ways of living and
working that allows people to enjoy life, businesses to prosper and communities
to thrive. At the same time, it is about enhancing the natural beauty, wildlife
and cultural heritage of the National Park and affording opportunities for
understanding and enjoyment of its special qualities by the public.
The Whiteburnshank Outdoor Centre installed a whole range of environmentally-friendly measures thanks to a grant from the Sustainable Development Fund. These include a wind-turbine, photovoltaic panels, thermafleece insulation and composting facilities. If you would like to know more about Northumberland National Park, please click on the link below.
