Cllr Pat Scott, Chair of AONB Partnership said “it’s fantastic to think this is the fifth Annual Forum of the Northumberland Coast AONB. I’m very proud of what has, so far, been achieved by the AONB Partnership, even in times of recent financial adversity. The Annual Forum provides a really good chance for interested people to find out more and get involved. RAF Boulmer has been a longstanding supporter of the AONB and are a key stakeholder in the management of the area. We are really grateful for their generous invitation to provide such an unusual venue for the Forum. Participants will get a unique opportunity to view at first hand the interesting historic heritage of the base, and RAF Boulmer’s excellent environmental work”.
