CPRE Sussex Nuffield Research Students
Two A-level students are currently undertaking a placement with CPRE Sussex to carry out research into biodiversity and land management. The research, which focuses on butterfly populations, is being carried out over the summer and will form the basis of a funding bid for further research next year which will aim to show the value of undesignated countryside in terms of biodiversity. Undesignated countryside is under threat in many parts of Sussex.
