Northumberland National Park Authority

The Northumberland National Park Authority has the responsibility to look after Northumberland National Park - one of 'Britain's Breathing Spaces'.

As the 'guardian' organisation for this protected landscape, the National Park Authority exists to conserve the landscape, heritage and wildlife of the area and to provide opportunities for people to enjoy and understand it. We are also committed to supporting the local economy in and around our borders to ensure a thriving, living countryside for future generations.

We work to achieve these things through a variety of partnerships with others, such as our Joint Local Access Forum and community groups, and by providing a helpful planning service free expert advice and a range of grants for sustainable business, tourism and community projects.
