Do you use the #EnglandCoastPath between #Marske & #Hartlepool? If so, @NE_Northumbria & @GWKNEC would love to know more about your experiences and how you think it can be improved. Please help by completing the survey and sharing this with networks. Thank you!

[Natural England NE @NE_Northumbria]

About 26 miles of the KCIII English Coast Path runs from Marske to Hartlepool. We want to understand how this stretch connects nature sites & how it we can improve access to nature.
Please help by completing this short survey https://t.co/9LA8xkSsGk

Great to see https://t.co/YqeJpM29V4 launched today. Thank you to everyone who has helped along the way, especially the fantastic team @tynetotees, Kim @ https://t.co/XlXtug19mY and Niall @niallybgone who got the ball rolling several eons ago.

Great news!

Our FREE SeaScapes Coastal App is now LIVE & available on the AppStore.

The app will ping at key locations along the coast & provide interesting info on the place you're at AND locations of ship wrecks will provide info on the hidden heritage beneath the waves.

Please give nature space! The Marine code states you should keep 100 metre distance minimum between you and marine mammals. This is what happens when humans don't adhere to best practice... #spaceforseals #respectthenap #givesealsspace

Grey Seal distress - we were sent this video from a member of the public. The individual approaches the haul out despite them looking alert and distressed resulting in the colony flushing on mass. On this occasion 2 seal pups were abandoned. KEEP YOUR DISTANCE ⁦#Seals

Today @NaturalEngland launch six new landscape-scale #NatureRecovery projects. Great to have one of these in the #NorthEast at the #TeesEstuary.
Good news for nature, people and place.

[Natural England @NaturalEngland]

Today, we've launched six new landscape-scale #NatureRecovery projects spanning 176,000 hectares. 😮🌳

The projects will improve climate security and build diverse habitats for wildlife such as the endangered wart-biter cricket and the elusive twite.

An update from @BDMLR:

“One of the dead whales appeared to have had a vaginal prolapse – so it’s currently suspected that the whole pod stranded due to one female giving birth.”

SMASS are conducting examinations to conclude the cause of the stranding.
