Who and How?

Administratively the Wye Valley AONB is very complex, being the only protected landscape to straddle the border between England and Wales. It covers parts of the three Counties of Herefordshire, Monmouthshire and Gloucestershire, which are each in a different government region: the West Midlands, Wales and the South West respectively. Co-ordination of conservation across these political boundaries requires a special effort by the AONB unit, its Joint Advisory Committee and all partners, including Government bodies and voluntary organisations.
