Exmoor National Park is a living, working, landscape. In addition to playing host to some of the country’s most spectacular landscapes it also hosts thousands of businesses.
In pursuing National Park Purposes the National Park Authority has a duty to foster the social and economic well-being of local communities, whilst working alongside colleagues in Local Authorities who hold the economic development remit.
We are very keen to encourage economic activity in the National Park which benefits from and enhances the local environment. This type of activity helps to make life in the National Park more sustainable. Examples of this could include:
Environmental technologies
Environmental land management
Traditional building restoration
Landscape enhancement
Sustainable tourism and leisure
Sustainable field sports
Local food and drink
If you have an idea for a project or business that could contribute towards developing our environmental economy, please contact the Rural Enterprise Team on 01398 323665 or email RuralEnterprise@exmoor-nationalpark.gov.uk.
Do follow and engage with us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram @RuralEntExmoor. There is also a closed facebook group that businesses can join to share and interact with each other.
