Invasive Non-native Species
CHESHIRE REGION INNS INITIATIVE 
Partners in the Cheshire region met for the first time in December 2008 to discuss how to tackle the issue of invasive non-native species in the region. A group of key partners developed the Cheshire region INNS Initiative.
The group put together a Terms of Reference and started to categorise the invasive non-native species that were found in the Cheshire region. This list was split into 6 sections as set out in the Cumbria and Norfolk pilot initiatives.

To help us understand how to tackling invasive non-native species within the region, the group put together a shorter, more concise action list. Higher priority species, as well as species that are not very well recorded or understood were put into the action list. This should guide partners in the course of action for each of these species. Both lists are constantly being updated so information, advice and expertise are welcome. For more information about invasive non-native species go to the general information section below.
