Natural England has been gradually rationalising its office estate, firstly through the Working In Natural England (WINE) 2010 Programme, which saw its offices reduce to 32 through a range of flexible working policies including home working and multi-base working.
This has now been extended through the WINE 2014 Programme which is working towards a 20 office model which will be phased over 2011-2014.
The retained offices are likely to be in the following locations:
Ashford
Bristol
Cambridge
Crewe
Exeter
Kendal
Leeds
Lincoln
London
Newcastle
Northallerton
Norwich
Nottingham
Peterborough
Sheffield
Taunton
Telford
Winchester
