Sustainable Challenge Events

 

The Windermere Reflections SORCE (Sustainable Outdoor Recreational Challenge Events – you can see why we've shortened it to SORCE!) project has being delivered by Nurture Lakeland over 12 months from July 2011 - July 2012 

runnersWe've worked with event organisers, land managers and other stakeholders within the Windermere Catchment to develop a 'Best Practice' toolkit to help minimise the environmental impact of events in the area.

You can now download the guide here.

 

  

 

cyclistsWe've also been promoting the use of local procurement and services to support our local communities and their economies and encouraging and inspiring organised recreational event organisers to get involved with our successful visitor giving scheme.

 

 

Windermere Reflections is a 3 year landscape partnership scheme funded by Heritage Lottery Fund. The programme consists of 19 projects which will work with the whole community to encourage positive action for the environment and improve the quality of the lake and surrounding landscape for the future.
