The farmers of the Shropshire Hills are being supported to apply for grants to continue making a difference to people's lives.
The national funding programme from Defra was launched a year ago and is aimed at farmers and land managers in protected landscapes.
Phil Holden, Shropshire Hills partnership manager, said:"The funding is for one-off farming projects and will close in March 2024. Projects must reflect at least one of four themes to deliver local benefits to nature, climate, people and place.
Successful applicant Rowanna Britten from Lower Bush Farm, a not-for-profit care farm, said: “A massive thanks from everyone at the farm for this opportunity. It’s going to make a massive difference to the lives of so many people. We can’t wait to get started.”
