NORFOLK SKIES

Did you know that Norfolk’s skies are renowned for their beauty – both day and night.

The dark skies and dark landscapes of our beautiful county are among the least light polluted in the whole of England.  This makes them important to the character of our county, so they deserve greater protection.

We need to remember that with levels of development increasing and people worrying about protecting their properties additional lighting sources threaten large areas of our countryside that are, at the moment, dark, rural and tranquil.

CAN I HELP?

The answer is a simple Yes – just take a look at the leaflet produced by the CPRE on this link:

https://www.cpre.org.uk/norfolk/wp-content/uploads/sites/32/2021/01/CPRE-Norfolk-Reducing-Light-Pollution-Leaflet.pdf#:~:text=A%20key%20document%20in%20Norfolk,as%20a%20Rural%20Dark%20Landscape

It tells you all about the impact of light pollution and the benefits of reducing it. 

Let’s all do our small part to keep Norfolk the beautiful county it is, especially at night.
