How to win: Warslow Moors Estate Wader Protection Plan Project

About this contract

The Authority has owned the Warslow Moors Estate (1902 Ha) since 1986 and aims to conserve its natural beauty, wildlife and cultural heritage. Large areas of the Estate cover Leek Moors Site of Special Scientific Interest, Peak District Moors (South Pennine Moors Phase 1) Special Protection Area and the South Pennine Moors Special Area of Conservation (See Appendix 2 of the Invitation to Tender for designations in respect of project area). Of particular relevance to the Estate's work are the wading bird populations that the Leek Moors support. Population numbers of Eurasian Curlew, Common Snipe and Lapwing were on a severe decline towards what were considered to be a dangerous level. A previous Wader Recovery Project and subsequent predator control has addressed this decline and together with a habitat restoration programme the number of breeding waders is in recovery. Previous predator control has aided the establishment of core breeding wader hotspot areas. The estate seeks to continue this work and continue the sustainable restoration of wader populations. Project Aim • To protect the breeding waders in the defined hotspot area through an agreed predator control programme bet
