The opportunity presented by the potential funding available is significant for the Solent region. By adopting a strategic approach, we can ensure, alongside the private market, that mitigation is available to meet the planned growth across the Solent long term.&nbsp; This approach also emphasises the importance of not only addressing environmental concerns but allows for significant additional benefits for people and placemaking.</p>\n<p>The framework and projects (acquired through the LNMF) also provide the opportunity to deliver multiple different forms of mitigation from one source.&nbsp; It is intended that the Solent Mitigation Partnership will also offer, but will not be limited to Biodiversity Net Gain Units and Solent Wader &amp; Brent Geese site mitigation. Mitigation is now being delivered across the PfSH local authorities, together with a number of additional partner local authorities across the wider Solent area.</p>\n<p>More information on the SMP is available at <a href=\"http://www.solentmitigationpartnership.co.uk\">www.solentmitigationpartnership.co.uk</a></p>\n<p><strong><em>Fareham Borough Council (employer authority)</em></strong></p>\n<p>We take pride in receiving feedback from others who say we are a friendly and professional organisation.&nbsp;By working for us you will become part of the team and will play your part in serving all our partners’ communities.
