Partners

Project Partners

The Lyne Burn Green Network is a collaborative project. We are working closely in partnership with national organisations and local groups to deliver environmental and community benefits.

SEPA - Scottish Environment Protection Agency

Every day the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) works to protect and enhance Scotland’s environment, helping communities and businesses thrive within the resources of our planet. We call this One Planet Prosperity.

Restoring damaged and neglected rivers is one way in which we can help achieve that ambition.

Like many of our natural resources, our rivers are under pressure and in places, damaged. SEPA's Water Environment Fund (WEF) contributes to partnerships for the restoration for urban rivers and the surrounding greenspace.

The Water Environment Fund is supporting the Lyne Burn Green Network by improving the river habitat within this greenspace corridor.

Fife Council

Fife Council is the local authority for the Fife area of Scotland. The ‘Plan for Fife’ (the Local Outcome Improvement Plan) has four main priorities of:

  1. ​Opportunities for all
  2. Thriving places
  3. Inclusive growth
  4. Jobs and community-led services​

This project also aligns with Fife Council's Greenspace Strategy.

Fife Council are instrumental in each stage of the project from River Restoration and Green Infrastructure implementation through to Community Engagement.
