Purpose

The Arnside and Silverdale National Landscape
(previously known as the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty) is
managed by a Partnership. The County Council is a key partner and
is represented on the Executive Committee. The Partnership receives
an annual grant from Government via the Department for Environment,
Food and Rural Affairs (Defra), matched with local authority
partner contributions. The County Council's annual contribution is
currently £14,180. The Arnside and Silverdale National
Landscape Executive Committee has requested that this increases on
an annual basis inline with inflation to cover inflationary price
increases.
