More tree planting, wetland restoration and drainage work could take place in parts of Northamptonshire to "safeguard nature for generations to come".

West Northamptonshire Council has approved its first Local Nature Recovery Strategy (LNRS) which was required by the Environment Act 2021 and is the responsibility of all authorities.

It said the area was one of England's "most nature-depleted areas" and its wildlife sites "are often small, in poor condition, and isolated from one another".
