Although most NNRs are managed by Natural England, 88 are wholly or partly managed by other bodies approved by Council, under Section 35 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981. Our Capital Grants Scheme helps with the management and upkeep of these reserves.
Titchfield Haven NNR is owned and managed by the Hampshire County Council.
This is one of 10 sites on the south coast that are vital pre-migratory feeding places for wetland birds. The site is also home to plants and animals that have a highly restricted distribution in southern England.
