Due to the scale and distribution of recreation impacts affecting the Cannock Chase SAC, a Partnership was formed in 2010 comprising Local Authorities and advisory bodies such as Natural England, the AONB team and the Forestry England. The Cannock Chase Partnership has since developed a detailed programme of mitigation which now needs to be implemented through project delivery (Strategic Access Management and Monitoring Measures (SAMMM)).
