ERC are supporting the Solent Seascapes project with their Seascape Recovery Plan. The Solent Seascape Project, which is led by the Blue Marine Foundation (BMF), is a collaborative five-year initiative, working to restore multiple habitats across the Solent. ERC are working with Resources for Change (R4C) to support BMF with the delivery of the Solent Seascape Recovery Plan.

The work includes the development and implementation of a Stakeholder Engagement Delivery Plan (SEDP) to ensure that the Seascape Recovery Plan (SRP) is co-produced with Solent Stakeholders.  The SEDP advises on co-production and engagement approaches, ensuring alignment will other workstreams, it sets out the how, what, where and when of the engagement required to create the SRP and deliver the actions identified. Once agreed ERC and R4C will deliver an innovative engagement programme (as outlined in the SEDP) the results of which will input into the SRP. This will ensure that the final SRP has a shared vision, aims & objectives and an implementable action plan that stakeholders can own.
