Upcoming Management Plan 2025-2030
This Management Plan looks beyond the next five or ten years and sets out a long-term vision for the Surrey Hills as a thriving National Landscape for the next century.
The Surrey Hills Management Plan is one of a national family of Plans. There are 34 National Landscapes (previously AONBs) in England, covering 15% of the land area, and a further 4 in Wales and 8 in Northern Ireland. National Landscapes are designated by Government for the purpose of ensuring that the special qualities of our finest landscapes are conserved and enhanced.
The Management Plan is the only document with a focus on the whole of the National Landscape. Every five years, a Management Plan needs to be adopted by local authorities and public bodies which have a legal duty to seek to further the purpose of the designation.
