In this pilot project, children from Shilbottle and Hipsburn primary schools will spend time on Northumberland AONB beaches exploring and understanding the natural world around them.

Northumberland AONB hopes that by encouraging children to experience and connect with the AONB, this will help to create and inspire the coastline conservationists of the future.
