Thames Landscape Strategy Partnership Executive Review Board

Description

The Thames Landscape Strategy brings together a partnership of organisations, individuals and local groups to provide strategic guidance for the Thames corridor between Weybridge, Hampton and Kew in West London. The partnership acts as a catalyst to implement project work on the ground, and as a day to day link between the authorities, the local communities and the vision of the Strategy.

 

 The Thames Landscape Strategy vision is to ‘Conserve, promote and enhance for the future,  one of the world’s great river landscapes between Weybridge, Hampton and Kew’
