A scheme to restore habitats at a nature reserve has been handed £750,000.

The money will be used to fund a two-year project in Druridge Bay on the Northumberland coast.

The project, overseen by Northumberland Wildlife Trust (NWT), is being funded by the government and National Lottery’s Species Survival Fund.

Duncan Hutt, NWT’s director of conservation, said it hoped to restore several habitats to aid species recovery.
