    Julian Glover

    Julian Glover

    Julian Glover is a trustee of the National Lottery Heritage Fund and led the Landscapes Review for Defra.

    The trail was blazed by the Peak District, the first National Park in 1951.
    'The countryside can pull us together, a connecting point for a nation that sometimes feels as though it is falling apart'

    After 75 years, the job required of national parks has changed. They now need to be hothouses of Nature recovery, and it’s time we got on with it, says Julian Glover.

      'The countryside faces either terrible harm or uplifting good. Which will it be? It really is up to us'

      The countryside is for everyone and the problems facing it — and farming and the environment — will not be solved if the different factions continue to squabble, points out Julian Glover.
