The North Devon UNESCO Biosphere is a special area that’s been recognised by the United Nations since 1976 for its incredible landscapes, wildlife, and way of life. It was actually the first of its kind in the UK! At the heart of the Biosphere is Braunton Burrows, a massive dune system filled with secret paths, rare plants, and even hidden World War II history. But the Biosphere doesn’t stop there – it stretches from Dartmoor's wild moorlands across ancient woodlands, winding rivers, and deep into the Atlantic Ocean.

It’s all about living in harmony with nature. The people here work on exciting projects to protect the environment while making sure local communities thrive. That includes eco-friendly farming, ocean conservation, and even high-tech ideas to fight climate change.
