What an amazing couple!! They really have proved formidable and selfless guardians of the very special Catfield Fen and its unique habitat. Huge thanks are due from all of us. But as they say, there is still more work to do.

Tim Harris, who fights and wins legal cases to protect nature:

“Inertia is prevalent throughout all the regulatory bodies... We get on well with Natural England, apart from suing them. They all came to tea and we talked about everything but the legal case. It was a very British occasion."

Norfolk farmers won their 3rd legal victory protecting Catfield Fen from polluters. A decade fighting regulators who kept falling short. Small producers shouldn't need three court wins to protect the land they farm.
