About the Partnership

The Partnership is a group of organisations who share a common aim: to reverse the decline of biodiversity in Dorset.
Together, these organisations have identified Dorset’s most important habitats & what needs to be done to conserve these habitats. This is captured in the Dorset Biodiversity Strategy.

The Dorset Biodiversity Audit is produced by the Dorset Environmental Records Centre (DERC). It contains a wealth of information on the species and habitats of Dorset and is an essential backdrop to the Strategy.
