The WADER project uses a Catchment to Coast approach to investigate causes impacting on water bodies in six internationally important Natura 2000 sites. This five-year project is working to improve river, intertidal and marine habitats and the species that depend on them. The project area covers the stunning Northumberland Coast and the cross-border Tweed catchment between England and Scotland.
